Any owners of Westi'e/Caterhams abroad?

[bosshog]

Hi all,
is there anyone out there who has a kit car registered abroad? I'm based in France and I've been wanting to have a caterham/westi/ultima/etc for quite some time, but I know that the French goverment doesn't recognise kit cars. But I sure it must be possible to do somehow - has anyone got any experience or know someone who has?
cheers

I would have thought that buying a used/buildt one with valid UK papers/log/registration would make it easy to put it on french plates? Whats the difference between a small volume unknown car manufacturer and a factory buildt Kitcar?

You would think that in any civilised country having a fully register car from the UK would make it easy, but you're forgetting this is France - nothing applies - you do it their way or you don't do it at all!.
