Apologies, I wasn't dissing your post just venting on how to save all the VAT and other charges which will push your bike close to £12kHey, I was just answering the duty/vat question!
Personally, I do buy local, and I also buy from brands that have good support, look what happened to Pole owners…
If I was an importer/distributor of Unno bikes I’d be a bit miffed if I couldn’t get bikes from the manufacturer but customers could order direct and go around me.
There’s no price benefit by purchasing direct anyway, from what I can see, quite the opposite.
