Yes, this appears to be the option I am heading towards after heeding the wise words of others on the forum. It seems like there are ways and means of battling the bureaucrats, but it seems easier to just buy the bike, ride it around London for a few months as I get used to it, set it up,etc, and then apply en route, which has been confirmed as being possible by the import authorities.
So, whilst you seem to have suggested it in a mildy tongue in cheek fashion, I think you're on the money.
