Grades - Ireland and UK

[ElaineOS]

Hello,I have just brought my 2005 Toyota Yaris over from Republic of Ireland. Its now registered with DVLA, however insurance companies don't recognise the Irish grades. My car is a Strata, and the options I have been given for UK equivalent are; colour collection, T spirit, T2 or T3. How do I find out what the Strata would be in UK? I have phoned Toyota in both Ireland and UK and they were not able to advise. Please help! 

Thank you.

Why not contact an insurance broker who specialises in imports. For example Adrian Flux who provide insurance for Toyota Owners Club members -

T2 and T3 make it a early mk2 (gen 2) looking at the press pack for the launch the 1.0 came in T2 and T3 the easyest way to tell is - The T3 has an adjustable steering column and drivers vanity mirror in the sun visor, the T2 does not

T2 and T3 trim levels were available on both the first and second generation Yaris. In the UK the T3 may have had the adjustable steering column and driver's vanity mirror, but that difference may not be replicated in the Irish grades.
