I'd endorse the recommendation of Argos, who have an excellent return policy.

Firstly, not all UK libraries use Overdrive. Quite a few have switched to Bibliotheca. You'll need to make sure that the library uses Overdrive.

Secondly, most local libraries require you to be a resident of the local area to have an account. Some libraries will give an account to anyone who lives in the UK, but I don't think there's any library which will give someone who lives outside the country an account. Sharing an account is a breach of the library's terms, and could lead to the card being cancelled if they find out. I've borrowed books on my Aura One when I've been back visiting family in Norway, so I don't think they check the IP address, but it's certainly possible that someone would notice if it's constantly used from outside the country.
