Was it fitted with domestic plates or "export only" plates?
Domestic plates could only be fitted to a vehicle that complied with EU regulations. Export only means that domestic taxes were not paid and probably means that the vehicle did not comply.
Look under the bonnet. If the vehicle does comply there should be some black and white EU stickers near the VIN plate. They will say E11 and then a bunch of numbers. If you haven't got these stickers then you will have to get your vehicle tested and approved at one of the regional test sites.
