buying a car in germany without a fixed address

[stef1808]

Hallo

I would like to buy a car in Germany and register it there. It would stay in a car storage where they look after it also.

Can I do this and register it(to the car storage address)? If not what about registered to a business in Germany(not mine) but under my name?

To register my car(s) in Germany I had to provide my proof of residence, my rental contract, a proof from my landlord that they will rent me the property and my UK passport (which gives me right to residency).

I would guess you cannot do any of the above without paperwork, paperwork and some more stamped paperwork.

Quite simply NO!
Registering to a german registered company can be done but not in your name, either company OR private person, not both.... german bureaucracy at its best..... If you're not a resident then you can't register a car in Germany.
You can of course buy a car, and leave it unregistered at a german address (enclosed/locked) but you'd not be able to insure it etc
You might find a storage company who would store it but probably with horrendous costs.
