For vehicles that are under ten years old, from Singapore, your vehicle will need to comply to UK standards. This is done by IVA testing your vehicle using our own IVA testing lane. This is the only privately operated IVA testing lane in the country and drastically reduces waiting times for your vehicle to be registered compared to using competitor vehicle import services.
Every car is different so please get a quote so we can discuss the optimum speed and cost option for your individual circumstances.
Cars imported from Singapore to the UK may require some modifications, including the speedo to display an MPH reading and the rear fog light positioning if it is not in the correct area of the lights.
We have built an extensive knowledge of all makes and models through experience, so can accurately quote you for what is needed to be done to your car.
Over 10-year-old cars are type approval exempt, but still require an MOT test and certain modifications similar to those for an IVA test prior to registration.
The modifications depend on the age but are generally to the headlights and rear fog light. If your vehicle is over 40 years old it does not need an MOT test and can be delivered direct to your UK address ahead of it being registered.
