what do they do with the cars & vans dumped at the compound ? Scrap them ? Also will be looking for a small van at end of summer season 2012 if anyone knows of someone selling one with UK plates as helping relocate someone .

How did you go on about extending the time for a further 6 months ?
Would be good if we could keep the car there for a year really.

I'd also like to know how to go about extending the six month rule, it would be good to learn how to do it. Thanks.

I don't think you can extend the 6 months - as far as I know you have to arrange all this before bringing the car in - once the car is in Turkey the option to blue plate it is gone. Starman will hopefully comment tomorrow on that - he knows the regulations very well indeed.

I have friends who drive over every year & stay around 8 months, but they take their car to Dalaman & lodge it with customs for up to 4 months. It costs them a tidy sum to do this. It's not a major problem them being without the car, as they spend a goodly proportion of their time pottering around the coast on their boat.

We extended our 6months to 1 year, you have to take your pension papers with car documents to dalaman, they then give you another 6 months, no problems and no costs.

 This is really interesting to know as we would love to do the drive at least once, so we just need to show proof of being a pensioner, to whom and where please? we have a place in Turkey (Kalkan) and intend to live there more or less full time although we would probably wish to escape July & August so longer than 6 months would be ideal. Thanks
