I can see their point. If loads of foreign cars were driving around the UK not taxed and insured here, we as citizens may complain.
I have to tell you that this is actually happening now that Europe is opened up. Mrs SD works for an Export company that exports goods to Europe. The transport company used has all its lorries registered in France because it is cheaper.....
Out of interest did you get any feedback as to how they intend to stop people having a foriegn reg on their aeroplane?
Regards, SD..
