Here in Holland also a problem. It is possible but will cost over €1000.
The England way is not longer possible for a car build after 1997. So the only way is to get the paperwork from a seven car before 1997. (sssssssst tell nobody) or pay a lot of money for the registration. If you import a seven car here in holland from before 1997 the cost would be € 200. I did it last year with a westfield.
