About AutoImporter

We built the import company we wished existed.

Importing a car used to mean five suppliers, a pile of forms and a lot of waiting. We brought every stage together, so you deal with one team that owns the whole journey.

Our Approach

Started by enthusiasts. Run like a modern logistics company.

Our approach is simple. Quote honestly, explain every fee, and keep the car in our own hands from the port to the road. That means our own workshop for modifications, IVA specialists who prepare every car and take it to the DVSA test centre, and secure storage on site.

Today we help private enthusiasts, families relocating, dealers and corporate, motorsport and film clients move vehicles in and out of the UK.

How we work

Four promises we keep.

  • Transparent by default

    Every fee itemised and explained before you commit. No surprises at the end.

  • One team, start to finish

    The people who quote your car are the people who ship, test and register it.

  • Plain English

    We explain the jargon, so you always know what’s happening and why.

  • Done properly

    Compliant, insured and documented at every step.

In-house workshop

Why one team beats five suppliers.

When the shipper, garage and test centre are different companies, cars wait, and nobody owns the delay. Our workshop sits in the middle of the journey, and one team manages your car from customs to Individual Vehicle Approval: the DVSA test that proves an imported car meets UK standards. to Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency: issues UK registration numbers and the V5C logbook..
