Hi,

Curious to know what the difference will be on BEV pricing under the new VRT rules compared with current pricing (which has €5,000 VRT rebate). Would be interesting to see old vs new pricing on a few e.g. Mazda MX-30, Peugeot e-208, Honda e, Nissan Leaf, Tesla Model 3.

Thanks, Kieran Donnelly

Hi there,

In July I imported a 2019-reg car and was exempt paying VRT on it due to transferring residence back to Ireland. If I sell the car within one year I must pay the VRT - is the VRT due calculated on a set 12 months or whatever period less 12 months (i.e. so in November say nine months VRT)?

I was going to switch to an EV in the New Year. Should I now bring this forward? Was looking at an Opel Corsa-e. I get that the VRT will reduce from 14% to 7%, but this will be outweighed by the loss of the €5,000 VRT rebate? And what of the €5,000 SEAI grant? Will that still be in the equation in the New Year?

Many thanks for your guidance.

What will a new Audi A6 cost and how much to tax come 2021?

Hi,

Will the new budget impact on importing a car from the UK, i.e. extra VRT and NOx charge?

Hi,

I am expecting to take delivery of a new Toyota RAV4 Hybrid AWD in January 2021. Could you please tell me how much my annual road tax will be based on the new rates of tax announced in the Budget of Oct 13 2020, as I’m totally confused?

Many thanks

Hi,

I have just bought a 2016 Mercedes-Benz V-Class V 250 d in the UK, which is due to arrive into the country this week. The CO2 is 166g/km and NOx is 0.063. What will I be paying to tax the car annually and on the basis there are new rules for registered cars in 2021 is there any sense in keeping the car in UK until January and registering in Ireland then?

I am a little confused now with the new regime!

Will the budget VRT reduce the price of the Model 3 Tesla?

We want to buy a new Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace as our family is growing in the New Year. Would it be cheaper to get one now or will we see much difference if we order one for January 2021?

Hi,

I bought a new Ford Focus 1.4 petrol in February 2008. Will my motor tax increase in the new motor tax scheme?
