That old chestnut - registering UK plated cars!!!

Postby anewlife » Wed Oct 12, 2005 10:38 pm

Talking to some English friends the other day about re-registering UK plated cars, they had heard that the rules had changed ONCE AGAIN!! Has anyone heard anything as some other people we met were also told that after very recently registering onto Spanish plates, they didn't have to!!! What is going on??? Our friends who have lived in Spain for many years and used to live in Torrevieja, said that even their solicitor couldn't keep up with the law these days.

there used to be a rule, u could drive the car for 6 months, have it sealed by customs, then they would come back in 6 months and let u drive it again? like a 6 months on, 6 months off. so everyone had 2 english plated cars ;)

but if this new law means you NEVER have to register the cars, tell me more??
