Importing a car from NZ

Hi guys,

I'm looking at potentially importing a car from New Zealand. I am currently there and have a 1991 Nissan Patrol Y60, and I am looking at bringing it back to the UK.

Has anyone got experience importing cars from NZ, or have any recommendations or advice on importing?

The car is in good condition, and the total price of the car and the export costs is still cheaper than what I would pay in the UK.

Thanks

Insuring an imported car

Hello everybody,

I am currently in New Zealand and will be returning to the UK in September. I've got a car here and have been toying with the idea of bringing it back with me, but am unsure if it will be incredibly expensive to insure due to it then being an imported vehicle.

The car is a 1991 Nissan Safari GQ TD42

The reason I would bring it back with me is that they are quite rare in the UK and are either expensive or not in very good condition when they do come up for sale. I bought the car for roughly £5.7k, which would be a very good price in the UK.

I am 21 and have been driving since I was 17, but I realise I will still be considered a new driver.

Let me know what you guys think and if anyone has had a similar experience.

Thanks
