    Sounds right. England run August to August and car would need to be on Irish plates for you to own here.

    Get the UK Reg from him and do a HPI check for peace of mind also.

    a lot of s/h dealers seem to say this. I don't know the legality of it, tbh.

    Ask him for his TAN number - if he gets shirty, walk away. Don't ask "Do you have a TAN no.?" as that allows him to just say 'Yes'. The TAN no. is issued to the dealer by Revenue (if they import and sell s/h cars, and probably for other stuff).
