RB has been resting in Espania since April and I have enjoyed many drives out since.
Since leaving the EU it’s not so easy driving around in a UK plated car so I have a decision pending in April when her MOT runs out.
I have 3 choices.
1. Pay the Matriculation fee of £1500 which puts her on Spanish plates.
2. Sell to the previous owner who has tracked her restoration and wants to buy the car back, but once factoring in the costs to repatriate his offer is not high enough.
3. Man up cut your losses, buy a historic/Classic car to take down which apart from insurance will be exempt from all the tax/bureaucracy and enjoy driving the smooth quiet roads FOC!
Your thoughts would be appreciated chaps.
The old Girl looks good considering she is approaching 20 years old!
