Import of Q plate UK 40 into USA

[Pete T]

Anyone know the procedure for getting a Q plated UK car road legal in the USA. This is a 1980s car with no chance of passing IVA type test now.

So long as you can prove initial registration of 25 years, it is good to go. it does not need to have been continuously registered, just that the initial registration was 25 years or older.

Thanks, Rick. I'm surprised it is so straightforward - getting reg in Europe would be beaurocratic nightmare
