As we will be in Itlay more than the usual two weeks, we are considering purchasing a car and leaving it at the house.  Does anyone know what that would entail?  Italian drivers license?  Insurance in Italy?  I truly have no idea.  Grazie,  Lisa

According to the PRA, ACI and motorizzazzione you must be an Italian resident to own or buy a car.  Some people disagree, but in my experience, you need proof of residence to buy a car.  If you drive a foreign registered car into italy, you are supposed to convert itto Itlaian plates after 6 months to a year, for which you also need Italian residence.
