Do you have to declare that the car is a euro import to the insurance company if it is full uk spec.

That's a BIG YES.

Have had one for almost 3 years and found this out when getting

quotes from different companies . For some reason they sometimes

add a premium even though it is a full UK spec car.ELEPHANT.CO.UK

for example.

I got a really good deal from Liverpool & Victoria

only one who would give a sensible quote for an EU Import

Most but not all companies have never reacted if you say it's a parallel EU import and full UK spec. Might even be on dodgy legal ground with free trade, EU market etc? My reg. doc. doesn't say euro import on it anywhere, either.

I'm with greenlight, they didn't care as long as I sent them a copy of the EC certificate of conformity - i.e. proof that it is UK spec (at least it was before I modded it!). IIRC some of the on-line systems only ask is it UK model or full UK spec, rather than is it an import - in which case they obviously don't care either.

just joined the scooby madness, I too found Liverpool Victoria excellent on quotes for my Jap Import, they don't specify C1 Thatcham or a tracker. Can't be beaten.
