JMM, Thats why my M£CSL is registered in france

You should do like most Italian living around here: register your car in MONACO. no taxes whatsoever

I have a Villa not far from you, Pegomas. The thought was there but once I paid the log book fees that is it. The problem is that the Italians know about Monaco ways and look out for that were as being registered in france is not a problem. RRS TDV8 HSE 2007- JAVA Black/Black interior,

I know Pegomas, nice place.

But you're right, a few of my Italian friends got into all sort of problem with your infamous ''Guardia di finanza'' with car registered in Monaco.
So you probably did the right choice, better safe than sorry.
