There have been several instances of English cars that have been in Zakynthos for some years having been stopped by Police and as the cars cannot be insured Taxed or MOT'd then they have been seized and taken off the road and their owners fined or charged storage fees. Be warned the Greeks are taking these things a little more seriously these days. You can legally import your car to Greece but you must visit the Greek Embassy in Londan first and fill in the papers before you leave UK. Buying a car in Greece is quite easy but you should be aware that second hand cars do not depreciate to the same extent in Greece as they do in England so new cars are probably the preferred option.

Best Wishes
