Hello,

One of my former customers moved overseas to Turkey some time ago, and now 
wants to purchase a used Audi.

If anyone  can send me answers to his questions, it would be most appreciated.

You can reply directly to sjmauto at comcast.net

Thanks in advance.

USA expatriate currently living in Turkey wants to purchase a (used) A/S6, 
A/S8 or similar.

Which country (Europe?) would the best deal / best (condition?) car likely 
be purchased?

What is the recommended method to purchase, ie: private party, dealer, USA 
military base, etc. ?

How can I find a reliable mechanic to perform a pre-purchase inspection? Is 
it necessary? What should it cost?

What country, what company would be best for choosing insurance? Can a 
non-resident obtain reasonable insurance? (Car will be driven in Turkey, 
Europe, maybe eastern Europe)

What taxes (or exemptions) apply to a non-resident (purchase of car)? Would 
it make more sense to buy in Europe (Germany?) and (drive it?) back to 
Turkey, or maybe just to buy in Turkey?

Any recommendation about a qualified, trustworthy and (possibly?) 
reasonably priced mechanic in Istanbul?

Looking for clues, details, tips, short-cuts, things-to-avoid.
