I have imported 10+ shipping container from china and if it was me i would find the car i wanted buy it legaly in whateve country it is you are buying it from get the relevent paperwork to say that the car is yours and that you are the owner and then just have it shipped home, or better still drive it home

once the car is here in the UK Revenue and Customs will contact you if they dont hold the car while its being sorted for you to pay Import duty and VAT, once that is sorted then i expect it is just like regestering a new car

what car you thinking of importing?

there's not much to discuss - it depends on the country you are exporting it from, but basically it is as you say
