If you bought an imported car between 2006 and 2015 it’s possible you’ll be getting £60 compensation as part of a £150M lawsuit brought against five shipping companies.
The carriers MOL, K Line, NYK, WWL/EUKOR and CSAV have admitted to European officials that they fixed prices to inflate charges over the nine years and face the equivalent of £340M in fines.
Furthermore, a Collective Proceedings Order has been granted in Britain which is likely to see payouts over 17Million vehicles in that period, according to Car Dealer Magazine.
Some 80% of cars and other vehicles sold in the nine years are from abroad and would result in about £60 a vehicle repaid to the original buyer, if they can be traced.
