If you're looking for some inspiration, there are specialist importing magazines and websites, and we're not talking top-shelf stuff.
Have a browse and see what takes your fancy. Also check out our

There are loads of cars out there that never make it to the UK, so don't be put off by the phrase 'grey import'. It doesn't mean the car has a shady past, just that it's never been Type Approved for Europe.
Be aware, though, you may have to carry out some small jobs to make the car UK roadworthy - see our upcoming section on importing from outside the EU.
Cars that do have Type Approval are referred to as parallel imports. We'll also cover
Type Approval further on.
