    Also, it's *very* important to remember that the figure given by that calculator is based on the standard spec of that UK model with no optional extras. If you're bringing in a relatively new car they may do an individual calculation based on the exact spec of your car. I'm not sure how likely they are to do this for an 2005 car - someone else should be able to comment.

    They'll charge for extras on cars up to 5 years old - after that they're not really concerned with it.
