Hi, speaking to Trans Glob Logistics about importing and they have said:
"
In order to prove that the vehicle was made in the UK, we would need some for of proof in the form of a certificate of Origin, which you can get from the British Motor Museum https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/archive/heritage-certificates".
However, upon visiting the BMM website, DeLorean is not a marque that they list!
I have emailed them to see if they can otherwise help at all.
In the absence of that, however, has anyone in the club any experience of finding any such certificate, or does perchance the club 'go into bat' on behalf of members to 'prove' (/certify?) that all DMCs (other than a few really late ones built in the US from parts after the liquidation) were made in the UK?
I see, for reference, that DVLA will take into account a certification from Members' Clubs regarding vehicle registrations (see link below), so I wondered if the Club had similar swing on the 'when it was built' topic..

Or is there a document somewhere which simply lists VIN numbers and shows where they were built?
Grateful, as ever, for any help or advice!
Cheers,
Ivan.

I imported mine in 2006, been through my old emails to see how it was done as I didn't have any issues. I used Trans Global Logistics for shipping and they put me in touch with a company called Forwarding Europe who handled everything at Southampton including VAT. There was one simple form they asked me to fill in.
Of course things might have changed since then.

Ps just a footnote, out of interest; the motor museum came back to me and did indeed refer me to the club!

Yes it's something the club can do for it's members. Normally a 'dating certificate' is only required upon importation. Drop me an email with what your after; secretary@deloreans.co.uk
