Car insurance for imported vehicles

  • Imported car insurance is different to normal car insurance. Imported cars from various countries including America, Japan, and around Europe usually have more expensive repair costs due to the rarity of parts in the UK or the complexity of the repairs needed.  
  • An imported car could also pose a higher risk of theft due to its attractiveness and therefore needs the right insurance to protect it. 
  • There are different types of imported car insurance: 
    • Grey imports: cars that have been imported from outside the EU - usually American or Japanese cars. 
    • Parallel imports: cars that have been built and bought within the EU - usually similar to standard UK cars 
    • Personal imports: cars that an individual has imported themselves rather than through a dealer.
