Just supposing and out of interest what happens going the other way?

[P]

Just a thought, but reading of the difficulties of taking vehicles and caravans to France has anyone any knowledge of what happens bringing in French registered cars and caravans to the U.K.?

The reason for asking is to have some understanding of what would be involved if we do relocate to France (and at the moment that seems extremely likely) and to avoid hassle we sell or UK cars and caravan, buy cars and a caravan in France and then, for some reason decide to relocate back to the U.K.

Never tried it, but registering a car in the UK is easy (just get an MOT, then visit your local Vehicle Licensing office, one in every city). No need to register caravan, so just take off the old French plates & fit ones appropriate to the UK tow vehicle.
