As many of you know, we are now an official DVSA IVA Test Facility.

In our first four days of testing, we have already completed almost two months’ worth of vehicle tests. Our immediate priority is to support our existing customers and clear the significant backlog of vehicles awaiting IVA.

Once that backlog is cleared, we’ll be opening up testing on a much wider scale.

If you have a vehicle that requires an IVA test, get in touch with us to discuss availability.

The SMC Transport Network is now moving into activation 🚗

We’re starting to activate UK transporters who have already applied, so if that’s you, keep an eye out for your activation email shortly.

If you haven’t applied yet, you can do that here:

https://www.shipmycar.co.uk/car-transport-signup

We’re currently activating UK transporters first, with EU applicants being contacted over the next two weeks.

Stage one is all about lead generation.

At ShipMyCar, we receive around 2,500 vehicle logistics enquiries every month, and being part of the SMC Transport Network means your transport rates can be shown to customers local to you who are actively looking for vehicle movement.

Your services may also be used internally by the SMC team where suitable.

All applicants joining during May will receive 30 days free membership.

And this is only the start.

Coming soon:

✅ Instant transport pricing for your own website or backend systems
✅ Diary and job management tools
✅ AI-powered route planning
✅ Full transport management platform launching in 2026

We’re building this to help good transporters win more work, reduce admin, and connect with real customers at the point they’re ready to book.

Apply here:

So sad to hear about Dave. He put his faith in ShipMyCar right at the beginning, helping us with Roush Mustangs when it really mattered. That support shaped everything that followed. A genuinely lovely bloke who will be greatly missed. Sending our thoughts to his family and the whole .co.uk team.

European vs American performance being loaded for a safe trip to the USA today.

Which is your favourite?

It's 2026, which means the "Class of 2001" is now legal for export to the USA under the 25-Year Rule.

Some absolute icons of the UK car scene are finally crossing the pond:

The "New" Mini (R50) – The rebirth of a British legend.
Renault Clio V6 – The mid-engine widebody monster that was never sold in the US.
Honda Civic Type R (EP3) – The UK-built breadvan hero.

If you've got a clean example of any of these, you could be sitting on a goldmine.

The US market is hungry for them.

Full guide on the Class of 2001 here: https://www.shipmycar.co.uk/news/class-of-2001-exports-usa
