Getting an address in UK and buying bike/vehicle
I hope I'm posting in the appropriate place. My question relates to the registration and ownership of a bike or vehicle, which I'd like to buy in Britain. (I live in Germany at present.)
I have no address in Britain but by renting a place for, say, three months (something that in any case I'd love to do, in my old home town) I would have one and could then buy and register, I assume, my bike/vehicle.
Then I ride/drive away. But what happens then as regards the licensing authorities? I'd no longer have an address there. Is there no problem here, is is it something I can't do? When the time came to renew the licence, I suppose I could go back, if I wasn't already there, and get a new address (by renting again) and hey presto!
Please help me by commenting on this. Perhaps I'm not the only one who's been in this position.
(By the way, one might well ask "Why not buy your bike or vehicle in Germany and register it there?" Well, there are reasons for not being able to do this.)
