How can you determine if a car is an import ? Is it clear from the log book (V5) ?

That means it's a UK car.
The log book for my imported Cefiro has different text there, it states:
"Was registered/used overseas. Declared manufactured 1993."
Section 4.K is also of interest, the type approval number. If it's a fairly recent car this should have an EU type approval. Mine states "Exempt over 10 years" because after I imported it I registered it using the 10 year exemption that means it doesn't need to go through SVA or anything like that.0
