No, you don't have to hook up your 360 to the internet if you don't want to.
However, if you do, you will automatically recieve a Silver subscription which is free. You can do anything with this except send messages and play online. A Gold subscription costs a set fee per year ($ 50 for US, 60 euro's for Europe of 40 pounds for UK) and you can then do anything with it.

I think you would need some sort of power converter since they use a different one in the US.
Other then that, you would need to get NTSC games which aren't available in regular stores in the UK. Those are PAL region coded. You can get NTSC games off sites such as Playasia.
the power is not much an issue you just buy power stabilizer and everything will be cool, the problem is when you buy an amirecan xbox you can only play ntsc games on it which i believe that theres no or a very low number of games that ntsc on the european market so you will face a problem in that , you just buy a xbox from your country and dont bother
