Insurance required for registration query

[sabez]

Hi Gents,

Does anyone know if its possible to just insure the Rx-7 for a week in order to compile with UK registration?...

I am wanting to purchase a Rx-7 here, with the intention of bringin it back to Australia with me. (under the 12 month personal ownership rule).  My problem however is i cant find cheap 3rd party insurance.  (None actually, and is a heavy additional cost not making it feasible) In Australia i was able to insure my 300zx TT 1991 3rd part of the same as 150pounds.  Here my minimium quote has been £7000 pounds.!.. for the Rx-7, due to being an outsider, under 25 etc, international licensce etc

Honesltly i intend to own the vehicle for 12 months, store it and then ship it back with me to Australia.  (as these cars are expensive there).

Anyone know of a way i can register a Rx-7 under my name, however get through this compulsory insurance?..

i.e. could i insure the car for just 1 week during registration?
     is there any other way to get cheap, invalid insurance for a claim, but valid for registration?.

Any help/suggestions/comments would be muchly appreciative!!...

Steven.

If it\'s going to be stored here (i.e. not driven here) then it\'s not necessary to register or insure it.  I guess yo\'ll just need proof of ownership to import it to OZ though.
