Advice on importing Renault 4 van!

[smoo]

Have been offered an R4 van by our friends in France but am not sure how to go about getting it back to the UK and registering it, etc. Can anyone advise me please as to what I need to be sorting?!

Many thanks,

If it still has a current control technique on it , then just drive it back and run it on its french plates for a while - you'll be road tax , speed camera and traffic warden exempt

Once you have it back here and your CT expires, you will need to get a british MOT before taking it for a VIC test and applying for a V5 at your local DVLA office

ah yes, the controle technique...

Hmm, thanks for the info - will have to check on that. Our friend just uses it for running round his vineyards and I'm not sure if it's actually road-worthy!

Will start to investigate - thanks again.
