Question Looking to buy UK registered car in Portugal

Hello,

I am planning to move back to England in November and am looking to buy a UK registered car (that has updated MOT and Tax) to drive back.

Does anyone know where I could look?

Thank you,
Selma

Car Tax is no longer transferable with the car. New owners must take out new car tax

Thank you brodev, that is ok. I assume this should be quite simple to do (over phone)?

Cheers
