Interesting article from the 'Algarve Daily News'
http://www.algarvedailynews.com/news/3074-record-fines-for-foreign-registered-vehicles
These in particular:
"Foreigners and Portuguese returnees who have a vehicle in the country for more than six months in a year, consecutively or otherwise, and officialy have not imported it, are being stopped and fined an average of €250 a time."
"the authorities now are using a range of electronic surveillance techniques at borders to establish times and dates "
Could cause a few problems if they really do start checking properly.........but it is Portugal, it's taken them 3 years to get a system for the electronic tolls working!!
