Locking an opel cross land using the fob

When I lock my Opel Crossland by pressing the fob once the car flashes about 2/3 times but if I hit the fob again it give a long series of flashes. Am I doing something wrong by hitting the fob twice?

Hi,

I'm considering going electric and have narrowed it down to two cars: the VW ID.4 Pro and the Skoda Elroq Sportline. Both of them fit my needs on paper but would you favour one over the other?

Thanks.

Does a 2014 Audi A3 1.2 TFSI Sport (Euro 5 with stop-start) have a timing belt or chain?

Hi,

I was wondering about how I'd insure and be covered to drive a car back from the North to Ireland?

Where can I see the Cadillac Lyriq in Ireland?

Hi,

I'm relocating from UK to Ireland and have brought my car with me. I thought I had the v5c logbook in the car but upon arrival it is missing. I know I have to book the NCT within seven days but how can I do this whilst I don't have the v5c? Is it possible to give them it later when a replacement can come through or will they pass it through without it?

Hi,

I bought a VW T3 camper van which is over 40 years old. How much roughly will the VRT be?

Comparing the 2026 Dacia Duster Journey 1.2 hybrid to the Opel Frontera GS 1.2 hybrid of the same year, which would you choose, for about town and some motorway driving?

Thanks

Hello,

I have a VRT and VAT question for you. I'm looking at a Kia EV, a two-year-old car. Straight forward as it's been in use all its life in NI and it seems would be an easy import with all the savings.

However, the vehicle was registered to the motor dealer and was used as a demo car. It's technically a VAT-qualifying vehicle and there are companies that will act as third parties, buy the car and sell it to you without the VAT for a small fee.

My question is, if I do that, can I then bring it into Ireland? The form you fill out for the VRT does ask about VAT and if VAT was paid.

How much tax will I pay for a Mitsubishi ASX 2.0-litre petrol automatic which I brought back with me from Australia where I lived for 13 years? The car is 2017 and I owned it since 2019. Has passed the NCT.
