If i purchase a RHD car thats on Europeaon (French to be precise) plates, how can i register it in this country to have a proper UK number plate? If at all?
The car is in the UK and so far as im aware not an Import....
Costly? Possible?
Any gen?

DVLA office should be able to re-register it, no different to doing it for an import though afaik, you'll have it as 'registered for use overseas' on the v5

That says special vehicles?!
Document fees are £35 according to some forum at the dvla and its very easy, just can get hairy about VAT?!

Best advice, ring the DVLA if your unsure about anything, sometimes they can be helpful. Note the word sometimes though!
