I imported a pop up trailer into Germany in 2003 as part of a company sponsored move to a facility there. I can give you some specific insight on "converting" the trailer for euro specs if you are looking for that as well. I had to convert the coupling, the side lights, the turn signals (to amber), add a rear red fog / driving lamp on a dedicated circuit, and add red triangular reflectors.
Other things to consider:
-brakes
-weight distributing hitch on the tow vehicle?
- propane systems - 30 mbar, 50 mbar, vs US norm
- electrical service - convert vs. transform?
I see the note about having to pay VAT. Please look into this; I did NOT have to pay VAT or any import tax as I was able to demonstrate I had owned the trailer for more than 6 months before we moved.
An airstream in Europe is pretty cool and a real attention getter - I hope you pull it off!
