Hi guys,
I want to purchase from Japan but just wanted to clarify the importing to UK process.
Has anyone done it recently?
What costs are involved?
My understanding is:
- Cost of car
- Shipping and insurance - up to £1000
- 10% (of car value) import duty
- 20% (of car value) tax
- £250 registering to UK
- £50 MOT and whatver MOT flags up
- Normal car insurance to drive away
Am I right? Anyone shed some light?
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Kind Regards,
Raj
