Hi All,
I am considering purchasing a property on the French south coast and wondering if anyone can advise me of my dilemma ! I bought a Cayman during lockdown on online auction which was originally from Qatar - thus LHD. Its 2015 model with 29k miles on it in good condition. So, if my plans go ahead the car would be left in the garage at the property and just used for a few months each year. Would it need to be French registered or would it be ok kept UK registered. Not sure how insurance would work? It seems since Brexit life is now complicated on this? I believe cars are more expensive in France but not any evidence !
many thanks!

Many thanks for all the response! Seems to me that better to off load the Cayman and buy a French car !
