Information on importing a car etc

[R66bby]

Hey guys.
Iv got a few questions. Iv google quite a lot of information but I'm hoping somebody on here would help me out too.
Iv applied for a job in France, the job is a 2 year contract.
I would be able to either take my car across with me and the company would register it as a French car. Or I can buy a new car when I'm there.
Iv always wanted an American muscle car, but would never think about buying one for the UK as they are LHD. But being it France it could be a perfect opportunity to get one.
Problem is when iv used autoscout24 to source some they seem to all be in Spain.
What would be the best thing to do? Import it from Spain to France? Import it from Spain to the uk?
Any body had any previous experience etc.

Thanks for your time.

Makes absolutely no difference where it's been imported from, the EU did something quite good for once and made it easy. What you may have trouble with is getting a muscle car registered in France. We have some of the most lenient regulations regarding vehicle registrations, I know some other places are really rather strict.

Oh ok. So I might be better to re reg it in the uk and then get a insurance company that will do a 12 month green card.
