Despite being surrounded by countries in the market of left hand drive cars, the UK remains a right hand drive market. This is a headache for manufacturers and the knock on effect eventually leads to our cars becoming more expensive. New models of car often arrive into the UK later than in the rest of Europe, which further leads to restrictions within the pre-owned car market.
We are aware that new and used car drivers are becoming increasingly involved in the purchase of cars from Europe, because they can get the same model of car and cheaper, but of course the car will be left hand drive.
Imported cars
Cars driven on UK roads that are left hand drive are usually manufactured for European roads where they drive on the right hand side. Cars with left hand drive in the Uk are usually imported from Europe but could also be United States imports. For us to provide you with insurance for your imported car we first determine your car's classification, which is either a parrallel import or a grey import.
Grey imports may be imported, either brand new or used, from another country intended for markets outside the EU, where they are more readily available and competitively priced. Grey imported cars are imported from Japan, USA or Europe without going through the established main dealer network. Parts in these cars are not likely to be made to UK specification and therefore more expensive to replace, which affects premium rates considerably.
Parallel imported cars are vehicles that were manufactured for other European markets, and more likely meet the rigorous EU safety standards for parts etc, and effects on premium rates are therefore not as severe as what grey imported car insurance maybe.
Being specialists we are aware of the importance to provide insurance for a variety of left hand drive cars. Customers who often want a left hand drive car usually want to buy expensive sports cars cheaper. We are specialists who can offer porsche insurance, ferrari insurance, lotus car insurance and insurance for many other performance cars.
We are affiliated with a left hand drive car sales company, that are a car dealer for you if you are looking to choose from a range of new or pre-owned LHD cars from Europe.
