Sous-Prefecture de Castres v DVLA

You need to call SFN member John who runs this new service. We have just signed up and I will be reporting back soon on just how great he is.

James and I are VERY pleased and his services are making dealing with french admin a whole lot less stressful.

Looked into that but I can't prove residence in the UK as I have been in France for 7 years.

You're very lucky! We have the annual CMU renewal nightmare and are also currently experiencing the carte de stationnement renewal nightmare. We have been told this will take 4 months!!

The bureaucracy in this country is the one thing that would send me back to the UK.
