Exporting a moped to France

I have bought a moped in England to use in France, where we have a house, as I could not find what I wanted out there.

Should I register the bike in France and if so is that easy, or is there an alternative? I plan to leave the moped there for a number of years.

Yes, register it in France to your French address. Get your French accountant/financial advisor/ assessor/legal representative to help you.

I need a cheap to run petrol vehicle on a budget of £3000 which is suitable for the London ULEZ and also needs to carry a moped in the back. Rear seats are unimportant as they can be removed.
I'm thinking of getting a moped for my 16-year-old son, putting the insurance in his name so he gets a year's no claims towards his car insurance at 17. Would this work?
What's the best time of year to buy a moped?
