Can't do that in Fr*nce and likely other European countries, all vehicles must have eCall and your vechicle might not pass the mandatory routine check you need to do once in a while to be allowed on the road. Hope you like biking a lot.

There's going to be a lot of value in keeping cars from 5-10+ years ago around indefinitely.
