I am considering buying a used car in the UK and bringing it back to France on a permanent basis

We have heard that now such a car can continue to be driven here on UK plates and be insured and controle techniqued here also can anyone cast any truth on this matter?

The problem is insurance. Few if any mainstream UK insurers will insure a vehicl which is permanently in France and few if any French insurers will insure a car on English plates for more than a few months.
