I'm moving to the island for a few months next year and plan on buying a cheap car/truck for when I'm there. I looked into extended rentals but none of the rental companies give any significant price break.

Cars don't usually have pink slips (log books in the UK) but make sure that you get a receipt from the owner.

You don't have to be a resident to own and insure a car here. All the insurance companies are the same as for rates. I would suggest you go through the insurance dept. at Maduro Bank since the have an American lady who works there and can help you to understand the forms, etc.

you can buy insurance for a 6 month period and get your plates for 6 months as well. that might be an option if you don't plan on staying too long.

Yes..but since insurance is mandatory, they eventually get insured. Also, it is an age consideration as most want them to be over 23
