Maybe a reason not to do it would be the € 1,02 per cc tax which adds up quicly with a 6.000 cc engine

It seems i must find a trick to have the car on my name in UK or find another drug for my virus...

Well I hope you have bottomless pockets A car of that size engine will cost you an arm and a leg to tax over here let alone the cost of transporting it and then the hassle if it isnt in your name. The Cypriot authorities could think its a stolen car and throw you in jail Believe me you don't want to spend even one night in there. It really is dry bread and water for breakfast unless you have someone wwho can bring you some decent food in
