Is it possible to import a trnc vehicle into UK?

If we wanted to send our car home to the UK would we be allowed to 'import it' and pay the duties and re-register it?

What would be the import duty as trnc not recognised?

Anyone know?

Our friends did this and wished they hadn't, they had loads of problems because the TRNC isn't recognised.

also dont forget cars are worth a lot more here than the UK, say you got 2000 yr 4x4 it maybe worth 8K here but only 1500 in the uk

Can't understand why you would want to take a car back to the UK when the secondhand cars here are double/triple what they are worth in the UK. Probably more like triple on the secondhand market!

I would have thought that getting a TRNC veh into the UK would be virtualy impossible as it is not up to EU standards.
