Looking to import a Mazda MX-5, but what will the VRT be?
I am considering purchasing a 2022 Mazda MX-5 2.0 [184] GT Sport Tech RF in Northern Ireland. The mileage is 43,000 miles, but I cannot find VRT example of it only the 1.5 version. I am buying it from the Republic of Ireland.

What taxes on importing a nearly-new van from the North?
Hi,
If I buy a nearly new van in NI (more than 3,500kg), I assume if it is more than six months old and/or it has more than 6,000 miles on the clock I will be paying VAT to the NI dealer but saving on any customs duty? I am buying for private not commercial use.

Which new hybrid for up to €40,000?
What new hybrid car would you recommend for a family of five used for school runs and to go to work close by? Most journeys would be relatively short but we'd like something with plenty of room inside.
Our budget is up to €40,000.
