My relative's cars have been off the road a long time...

I'm in a pickle. I have a 2005 car. An elderly relative has a 2002 VW Transporter and VW Passat and I want to take ownership of both, possibly take mine off the road and in time convert the VW Transporter to a camper. Both have been off the road for over two years now and the van was commercial. Will it cost me big money to tax and insure both? Where is best to get insurance how do I put both in my name?

Is the tax on this 2008 2.0-litre petrol car correct?

Hi there,

I'm looking to buy an already imported car here in Ireland. It's already imported and registered by a private seller. He claims the motor tax is only 400 Euro but it's a 2008 2.0-litre petrol model emitting 199g/km.

When I check the motor tax rates for this car it should be a lot higher with both rates before and after July 2008.

When I check the reg number on Revenue's site it does come back at 400 Euro.

Is this a mistake? So how much would my motor tax be if I imported the same car with the same engine and CO2 emissions?

Thanks so much for your help in advance.

Kind regards

Why two different motor tax rates for the same BMW?

Two cars, different years pay different rates of motor tax yet they have the same engine and same CO2:

Reg 171 D 61663 pays €190 annually
Reg 182 D 26928 pays €600 annually

What's the difference?

Explain these motor tax rates for me...

Hi,

My question is this: Why is the motor tax on a 2019 five-seat Peugeot Rifter only €270 and the motor tax on a 141 Peugeot van is €514? I'm thinking it may have something to do with the CO2 rating, but if so, why not the same for both vehicles?
