Default Importing : The (E)SVA inspection or not.

Hi folks.. I understand that cars over 10 years old only need an MOT when imported, as regards to being inspected prior to registration.
What happens if you now import a car, say built, and first reg in Japan, in Dec 1996.
It used to have to be sva'd, what happens if you now import a like model ?

In a few days the simple SVA will become redundant for most imported Japanese vehicles. If you buy a car today and you can get it here in December Id be interested to meet your shipping agent.....
