Well as I am in the uK at present and my wife is in Italy it appears that today we have purchased a car in Italy!! so after all your help and sensible advice my dear lady has let her emotions get the better of her.Family is involved and everyone has assured us that it is ok - my wife is now going for residency and also citizenship - her mother was Italian - it appears that like so many things everything can be handled retrospectively - ahh Italians dont you just love them?

Gromitwe are located near Montorio Al Vomano in Abruzzo.My understanding was that you needed residency to buy a new car but providing you paid cash for a second hand car you only had to pay for the transfer of ownership and insurance - although I understand that the owner of the car suggested that the car was insured for an additional 2 months and would cover us!! oh Italians you have got to love them..No one seems to have a total picture Gromitbut your advice is greatfully received.regardskev
