Certificate of conformity?

[jimmyV8]

I have had some interest in my car from a gentleman in Switzerland. Apparantly cars built after Jan 1998 can obtain a certificate of conformity which he would need to produce to allow him to import the car without having to make any changes to it to meet regulations. This is how I understand the dilemma so sorry if it is a little vague. He told me he had contacted TVR Motors in London??? and spoke to someone regarding the obtaining of such documentation. Would anyone have any ideas about how I could go about getting th paperwork and where from,and more importantly what it actually is I am after as this is not something I have ever come accross before. Any help would be much appreciated.

Drop Gaffer a mail via her profile, she might know.

COC for the Chimaera would have been held at the Factory, so unlikely you'll get one nowadays. Just sold a Cerbera to a guy over there and the Cerbie doesn't even have a COC - he was told he needed one, then that he didn't.

Selling again James?

[jimmyV8]

Yes Sean unfortunately, really will be sad to let her go but after some changes on the relationship front and now I have nearly finished my degree decided I am going to sell up and travel for a year or so. I cannot justify leaving the car in storage here and the cash wouldnt go a miss either!

How about the type approval plate under the bonnet, does that help at all ?

[jimmyV8]

I was asked to check the plate for such a number as he gave me 3 different numbers to check for.One of which match which apparently meant he should be able to get the certificate. Im just struggling to find out where to obtain one from?

[jimmyV8]

I take it all back Graham may have come up with the goods. Thanks very much I will forward that link on to the chap!

Is there any chance you could give me any information on the COC?? I think I'll need to get one if I import a car to Italy.

I had a similar enquiry. I assumed it was another one of numerous dodgy attempts to part me and my car for free!
