You will not be able to legally buy a car in Greece without Greek tax number & residency certificate.

....

EU citizens DO NOT need a Residency ertificate, merely a certificate of registration after 3 months. Please read older posts

Thanks but where ? and how ? do we get the Certificate of registration... Will we need a greek address ?

This is obtained at the local police station, whilst the system may vary depending on the mood of the police !!!!.....you would normally have to produce Greek bank statements, house purchase / rental deatails, 4 photos and have been in Greece at least 6 months...
As I said it can vary so much, so others may contribute with their experiences.......
Of course as we said this is to "legally" buy.........................
