Some of you may know that I got ripped off by a fellow expat. when living in Hungary. I lent him money to prevent his house from being repossessed and he never paid me back. We had a lawyer draw up a loan agreement and the loan was supposed to be secured against the house but the lawyer failed to do that part. I have since lost contact with the man concerned but I still have 2 motorcycles that belong to him. The plan had been that he would rent out the house in Hungary and go back to UK and work as a lorry driver. I put the bikes in one of my farm buildings to clear his place out for tenants. When I sold my house in Hungary and moved my stuff to Croatia I did not attempt to take the bikes over the border as I have no paperwork for them. I took them to another expat in Hungary but she only agreed to store them for a year. That year is up soon so this morning I went to my local Police station to ask if I can bring the bikes through the Hungary / Croatia border without papers. They said I could as long as I was not riding the bikes but I suspect they didn't know and were just saying that to get rid of me. If I am going to the expense of hiring a van to move these bikes I want to be sure I will be allowed to bring them over the border. One is a Yamaha with a UK plate, the other is a BSA with no plates as I think it has been off the road since before the V5 computerised registrations started in UK. Any advice much appreciated.
