UK resident buying a car in Italy

[s_zigmond]

Hi all,

Hoping someone may have done this. My mum owns a house in Italy (my nonnas old one). I would like to leave a car there rather then driving each year. Is it possible for a non Italian resident (me) to register and insure a car in Italy? I thought about leaving a UK car there but dont want to return each year for an MOT.

Any advice or tips would be much apreciated

Cheers all,

Lots for me to look into.

I only go out a couple of times a year, but others would use it at other times.

I may well just get a resident to buy and insure the car for me, as well as getting them to use it when im not there, so its not just sat around.

The posibility of not needing to have it uk MOT'd every year is certainly food for thought.

Thank you all

Stephen
