michael Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 When some of our European members express an interest in purchasing a UK Supra they often ask for some documentation to help with the process - I can't remember what it's called and my search skills seem weak today. Can anyone remind me please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I think you mean "certificate of conformity".... something that shows it's designed and built for the UK/Euro market..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Thats right, a COC form Gaz. I was going to say something about C.O.C but i envisaged someone adding a .K at the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 something that shows it's designed and built for the UK/Euro market..? BUT, most are JDM cars here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 BUT, most are JDM cars here! Mine isn't, hence the question I just remember reading that some people find it easier to import a car into other parts of Europe if it's an original UK spec model and they have this documentation.

Sharpie Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I know your car is a UK/Export model. Where do you get the COC from then ? Toyota ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 Where do you get the COC from then ? Toyota ? I believe so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I believe so. Please let us know how much they charge for one and if it's based on your VIN number or they just issue a generic COC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 The only European country I know that requires this is Norway. I have sold cars to Denmark, Holland and Sweden and haven't needed anything other than the V5 to take with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 Please let us know how much they charge for one and if it's based on your VIN number or they just issue a generic COC. I'll see what I can find out when I get chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I had a COC with an old car - it came from the manufacturer at time of import to prove to insurance companies etc that it was built for the UK. Contains all sorts of stuff like model, engine number, vin number - basically a v5 with a bit more detail i think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I assume that stands for Certificate of Conformity? We do similar things for our PCs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
