Yes you will have to have owned it for six months to not pay import duty.

And yes, the process is the same for cars; Modification(s), ITV, Registration.

Left hand drive scooters, now theres a thought !!!!
May as well buy one here Steve, the usual ones you see the kids buzzing around on are as cheap as chips, unless you particularly want that something a bit special, Theres a big shop next to La Union by the blue bridge that does loads, but to be a real trendsetter you have to get a quad. You must remember that if you want to ride a scooter here though, you must first learn to completely flout the rules of the road, respect no-one and have surgery to remove the part of the brain that co-ordinates hand/eye movement :rolleyes:

I like to keep my hand in on both sites when I can Jim. As I always say, advice is free, but anything else you have to pay for :D
