Hi All.
I've been in England for about 3 months and miss driving. Was wondering if anyone could help with some of the details.
Getting a licence isn't a problem, as there appears to be some sort of reciprocal arrangement between the UK and the colonies.
Where I do run into problems, is-
Insurance: Seemingly all the online quotes require me to have been a resident for at least three years. Can anyone point me in the direction of some that don't?
Motorcycles: I've been driving buttorted vehicles for about 10 years, if I get an exchange licence from the MOT, will this enable me to drive a bike here?
Car groupings: G-reg, B-reg, H-reg etc...... what the hell does this mean?
Tax: I understand that registration is the cheap part, but taxes are levied acording to emmisions?
Road worthy checks (MOT): Are these annual? My plan is to buy a junker for a couple of hundred pounds, and use this as cheap transport. If MOT checks are going to be a hbuttle, maybe I should go for a better car?
Thanks in advance for any help.
