Buying secondhand car in France.

[hansolo_2]

I have seen a secondhand car in France I want to buy. I want to pick it up and drive back to Calais for import back to UK.Does anyone know about transit plates and insurance to be able to drive back through France.Do I need to go to prefecture? If anyone has an answer to this or has done this themselves I would be grateful.Thankyou

Can't get UK insurance even on vin number.Car will be on French plates.Tried a couple of french insurance companies without any luck.I think I will have to contact prefecture in Paris for definite answer.Thanks anyway.I will keep your trailer in mind thanks.
