Interesting link.
The biggest action to smooth the path of anyone keeping a UK car abroad is to make sure it has current UK road tax and Mot (and insurance, obviously).
If you are stopped for any reason by police, they really have no way of easily confirming how long your car has been in their country, but an out-of-date road tax or Mot would be cause to book you.
Papers in order? Off you drive to live another day!
