Thanks for that. What sort of price is broadband there and do they have downloading limits?

Thanks for all the replies. You've certainly given me a lot to think about there. I did think of the problem with overtaking but hadn't thought about kiosks etc... I mean, what would I do if I wanted a McDonalds?! lol It looks like the best idea would be to sell my MG and take it from there. I'm going to have to find something comparable to it but that's proving a hard task... I like sporty cars for not too much money.

Hi, I'm a self-employed computer technician here in the UK but am hoping to move the business to the South of France as I have been given an opportunity to do so by my cousin. My aim is to live somewhere around Nice so I wondered who provides broadband around the south? Also, what speeds are there in France and how much does it cost per month. If you've had good and bad experiences with certain providers, please let me know so I can recommend the best service to my customers. Also, how up-to-date are the French in comparison to England when it comes to electronics? My mum has an apartment in Spain and when I go there I sometimes can't belive how far behind they are in terms of technology when I go to Dixons equivalents there.

Hi, I've just signed up as I might be moving to the South of France. As it's quite a possibility I want to start getting to know more about the place and this forum looks great. Basically, my dilemna is I have an MG ZS180 here in the UK. The car has only covered 40,000 miles and I love the way it drives... there's no other car as good for the money if you ask me. I was considering selling it and getting a left hand drive one BUT then I looked on the french autotrader and anoher french used car site and the same car is around £8000 which is a lot more than it would be in the UK. Therefore, I'm considering taking the car with me if I move. Things I'd like to know are: Do I absolutely 100% have to register the car in France if I decide to live there? I'll probably be driving back home at least twice a year and could keep up the MOT's. I also have a private plate which was bought for me as a present so I don't really want to lose it. What is insurance like in France, or, as it will be UK-registered, will I have to stick with a UK insurance company? I'm 23 and my car is a 2.5 V6. Insurance here with 3 years no claims is £1300 or so. If I can get insured with a french company, can I carry over my No Claims Bonus to a french insurance company? What is the cost of petrol like as I will be running my own business and my car is more like my office lol I'm just trying to find the best option and trying to avoid ending up buying a heap of a second hand car in France... they're all so over-priced and I'm going to need as much money as I can get to set up over there.
