Owning a US based aircraft - catch..?

Hello,

OK I have a question, I've had a mad idea that to buy a N reg aircraft, base it in the States near a cheap place to get to and 'nip' across to fly it now and then...

Has anyone tried this? - what is the catch..? what am I forgeting?

The exchange rate is so tempting right now at 174-1. It means that you can buy a servicable 2 seater for about £8K and gas is cheap... think about it!
