I want to buy a car, and I have been told by various people (and online information) that before I am allowed to buy I must show proof of having a parking space within 2km of my home.
I have no need for a car near my home (central Tokyo) as I always use trains or a bicycle to get around.
I will be using the car on weekends to drive outside Tokyo. My girlfriend lives in Kanagawa and has a house with space for 3 cars, so the idea is that my car will be parked there all the time.
What do I need to do (with regard to paperwork) to use her address as the parking location when I buy the car, given that it is much further than 2km from my official home address?
