I have been offered a car (modern) by a family friend, whom lives in Berlin, I would like to buy the car but i live in France. How do i go about exporting the car to France? What happens about registration plates and temporary insurance for the drive to France? Any help would be appreciated... Thank you.

Hi,

You might find some useful advice here

Your local vehicle registration office should also be able to give you the information you need. Regarding importing the car to France, have a look at one of the many French AngloINFO websites - there is advice on registering a foreign vehicle on all of them!

Hope this helps
