I need to register my car urgently

Post new topic

Robin & Sue

Got to get the car registered & plated here as my UK insurance is about to run out & I only have a 90 day green card with the policy. I've read all the threads & i'm baffled as to what I need to do & in what order. Can anyone clarify?
I know I need to do something at the RAR but what & what's it called. Then possibly something with the police & plates from somewhere. Help! This is damaging my karma. The RAR website is useless. Thanks Sue

Hi Sue

I have just registered my car about 4 months ago

What I did is contact am good insurance agent who talked English, he put me in touch with a company that completed the full registration for me and did all the leg work for me at very little cost

Its worth paying this then doing it yourself!!!!

Hope that this helps

Take care

Cliff
