Hi,

I was considering buying a 151 Ford Focus Zetec 1.6 TDCi with 15,000 miles on the clock. Its sale price is €12,450. What do you think of the price? Is the engine reliable?

Many thanks

Hello,

I have a 1.4-litre 171 hatchback Volkswagen Polo with manual transmission and a diesel engine. I drive approx 100km a day five days a week for work, and the car currently has a mileage of approx 116,000km on the clock. Given that diesel and petrol cars are currently being phased out of the market, what's the best car for me to invest in, going forward given that I drive long distance and also do a lot of driving in cities? Is hybrid or electric the best option for long distance commuting and city driving?

Thanks

Good day,

I am planning to import a 1966 Ford Mustang from the USA into Ireland. I understand that I would pay a VRT fee based on the emissions of the vehicle, which, according to what I have read, would be 36% of the OMSP value. However, where can I find the market value? Is there any other important fee that I should assume within the import process? I appreciate very much your guidance on this matter as there is very little info regarding this matter.

Thank you,

Frank Garcia

Hi there I have a query please.

I have a 181 Passat Comfortline with 78,000km on the clock. We are looking to change as we do every two years. We have got varying prices of €15,000 for the Passat and €16,000 for a Tiguan. We are thinking of the SUV route and have also priced the Skoda Karoq, where we were quoted €11,000. We don't think we are willing to pay as dear to stay Volkswagen, but the garage has a 192 demo Tiguan for €11,000 and wondering if that is worth it. Because of high mileage, resale value is a consideration.

Any advice appreciated.

Hello,

I have a Mercedes Vito 1.6-litre diesel van; how much is this to tax privately?

Can you please tell me how much my tax would be on a Santa Fe 2.0-litre commercial SUV, but with private tax cause I don’t have a VAT number? The car has only two seats.

Hi,

I'm looking for a TMC Costin; can anybody help?

How much will I have to pay in VRT for changing my 161 Renault Trafic to a crewcab Irish van?

The UK car I want to buy does not have UK road tax and the dealer says I need to buy it to drive on UK roads to get up to Holyhead. You can only buy UK road tax for a minimum of six months, do I need to get it if only driving there for a day?
