I draw the line at orange wheels. And I ran out used last of it on the calliper carriers dint even have enough for the new callipers themselves. - they are BP and have grazed through a few wheel weights :oops:
Also, I found the rattle - pax drop link had grease flick on it from shaft and was 2/3 undone! :eek: Tightened up in banana hands fashion so itl have to be cut off next time.

Funny, I imported a French registered Renault a while ago when I was a UK resident and drove it for 6 months before going through the registration process, I had no problem with insurance. I was asked if I planned to re-export the car and warned I had to register within 6 months if not.

Was that a UK insurance company or French insurance company?
The reason that UK residents may not drive a foreign registered vehicle is that normally all vehicles in the UK need to be registered with an MOT & insurance. When a foreign vehicle is temporarily imported for up to six months there is a concussion that it does not need to be registered or have an MOT provided that it is road legal in the country of origin & the foreign resident who has temporarily imported the vehicle is a driver or passenger in the vehicle. If the foreign resident who has temporarily imported the vehicle is not in the vehicle & it is being driven by a UK resident then the concession no longer applies.

I will relate my personal experience moving cars around.
As a UK passport holder resident in Africa, purchased a car in France, collected it on one of my trips to the UK and drove it to the UK on French insurance and plates. I was stopped at the border and asked if I was permanently importing the car or re-exporting it, I was non committal and was told I had to do one or the other within the defined period. I drove it on French insurance for 6 months until I submitted it to be checked for registration.
Before moving to France, so as a UK resident, I moved 3 vehicles to France, all were used on UK plates with French insurance and CT within a short time of arriving until registered. My MR2 remained on UK plates and French insurance and CT for 3 years as that was how long it took me to get a special derogation from Paris for car that had never been homologated in France. Again no problem.
Later as a French resident, I imported a Renault from Belgium, no problem getting French insurance so I could go by train to collect it. Later still I imported a Citroen from the UK, then a Transit and a P38. In each case I got French insurance on the UK plates even though the vehicles were not registered in my name in order to collect and drive the vehicles back, in each case I got a CT on UK plates and a quittance fiscal to start the French registration process.
Things have changed since Brexit, but I see no problem in driving the car back to the UK on French plates and insurance. A bill of sale would be needed as proof of ownership and UK VAT & duty would be payable.

There is no problem in driving the car in the OP back to the UK on French plates and insurance provided that a non-UK resident does the driving in the UK. In your case you admit that you were resident in Africa when you imported a French registered vehicle & drove it in the UK for six months before registering it.
You cannot get a quittance fiscal on a car imported from the UK now. You need to go & visit the douanes & get a different more complex form completed. You cannot now insure in France a car on UK plates (you need to first register with temporary WW plates).
