How much to tax my VW Transporter as a camper or privately?
Hello.
My 152 VW Transporter van is a 4Motion 2.0-litre. It's commercial at the moment and annual tax is 333 euro. I'm thinking of converting it into a camper.
Can you tell me how much the tax would be on this van when converted into a camper? And how much the tax would be for private use?
Thank you for any help. It's much appreciated.

Three-cylinder turbo or four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine?
Hi.
As a long-term keeper would you recommend a turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine or would a four-cylinder non-turbo be a safer bet?
We'll be buying a new car next year. There are so many variants out there it's doing my head in.
We're not quite ready for all electric yet.

What size is the MG HS PHEV's fuel tank?
I have the new MG HS PHEV and have noted that you say that the fuel tank is of 55-litre capacity. I live in England and all the literature over here states 37 litres. But today I drove into a petrol station with 50 miles of petrol range on the clock and without filling up I put 44 litres in.
Is the 55-litre tank an EU market thing? If it is I would seem to have an Irish model as it's right-hand drive. Can you share any insights you might have on the tank size?

Skoda Elroq or BYD Atto 3?
First time going electric; do I go for the Skoda Elroq 50 or BYD Atto 3? Don't do whole lot of driving and work is 5km away from me hence killing the GTD!

Audi or Ford for my daughter's first car?
My daughter is getting her first car; she is 18. She wants an Audi, but I think they might be expensive and dearer parts etc. So, we are now thinking of a 2014 Ford Focus diesel for reliability and safety etc.

What to I pay to bring a classic BMW back to Ireland?
Hi,
I've bought an old BMW (1972) in Northern Ireland, and I want to bring it into the Republic of Ireland. The vehicle was originally registered in the south of Ireland (on Irish plates) and was imported into Northern Ireland in 2016.
Do I have to pay anything to bring it back into Republic of Ireland?
What do I do now?
