My bank (when the amount was 2,500 recently) would not let me withdraw more than that amount every 10 days unless I filled in a form stating where it was going and providing invoices etc. So I am guessing different banks will have different rules unless it was a state form.
Andiamo, it has changed in the austerity budget and is now €1,000 as Barns said. I'm pretty sure that would include cash brought into Italy without declaring it.
I don't know speficially the penalties but generally speaking, they are usually the amount owed, plus interest, plus costs, plus 30% of the original sum as a fine. Sorry - can't answer the last question but with the financial traceability limit going down and down I would be keeping my pension in a UK bank account.
Well, it depends on how 'correct' you want to be. You should still file a tax return here in theory and there may be tax to pay as the tax systems are different in the two countries. All the double tax treaty means is that any tax you have paid in the Uk will be knocked off your bill here in Italy. If you are self-employed there are no real tax free allowances unless you have dependents and then they are pretty titchy. If you are resident in Italy then your tax is due in Italy on worldwide income. Your choice if you want comply or not.
Sebastiano - I thought the IMU on agricultural buildings and land was introduced by the Fiscal federalism bill and replaces the IRPEF on the 'reddito dominicale'. Or have I misunderstood?

I was considering using the off-airport services that bring your car to the airport to meet you. Anyone tried these?
It looks like the cash limit is going to be chnaged back to 1000 euro and not 500. Watch this space!
We have bought several UK cars in the UK and imported them here. No problems. Given what Tartuffa says that might be a better option!
Apparently Fermo Province is doing it differently. You need your winter tyres or snow chains with you on ALL roads in the province. Also outside of the stated dates of there is snow or ice on the roads. http://www.provincia.fermo.it/notizie/comunicati-stampa/notizie/comunica...

Unicredit is an Italian bank!
