Make the 2 insurers fight it out between them.
Most likely outcome, they both say No, and then it ends up with http://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk |
I think Jim has explained that one. Your BRCA status has nothing to do with your status for importing goods. If you import something from the EU, you are treated as an EU citizen able to take advantage of free trade across borders. If you import things from outside the EU you re charged relevant duties and taxes and are treated as the importer.

Not the same situation. Cars are covered by the Construction and USe Regulations. As well as being the importer (you pays the taxes and duties - see above) you also have to have Type Approval, or Single Type approval. Once you have that you can insure the car. As for warranty, that seems to be up to the manufacturer, of which Ford seem to be one of the better ones, along with Toyota, at honouring warranties for cars imported from the likes of America and Japan.

Thanks to Jim for laying out the issues and clarifying our questions. Caveat emptor - buyer beware!!
