When buying an import, wat kind of steps do you have to take to get it registered over here? I know about the mot/sva test side of things, just not too sure about the process of actually registering the vehicle. Anyone help me out?

I know a couple of people who have family members who used to/can import for me, Ive had a brief word with one of them and he thinks he can get hold of the car I want for about 2-3k cheaper than what they are advertsied for over here
