Can I drive a non-EU car for a while?
Hi all,
I’m a masters student in Italy, I’m not a citizen but I have a student residence permit. When coming back from my home country at the end of this summer I would like to drive my car into Italy. I can easily exchange my license to an italian drivers license so that part is covered. I have asked Automobile Club d’Italia about it and they told me its okay if I pay the REVE which scales with my cars power. I’m okay with this but I’m seeing conflicting info online. Also, the car is lightly modified. Think ECE approved exhaust, coilovers with minimal drop, light tints. The car passes TÜV emissions and inspection very easily in my home country. I heard modifying is basically illegal in Italy. Does anyone have any information regarding bringing the car here and will the modifications have a consequence here or as its registered outside Italy am I bound by the laws in my home country instead? Basically I’m very confused on the process lol.
Thanks a lot.
