How much VRT could I expect to pay for converting a 2015 Volkswagen Transporter to a crewcab?

Hi there,

When do you change the timing belt on an Audi A4 TDI and service the air conditioning? It's a 2015 model.

Thanks

Hello

I'm hoping to import my 2015 Porsche Macan S petrol from New York when I move home to Ireland later this year. I can't find Porsche on the VRT calculator - I have owned the car for nine months and saw there are some exemptions if you have owned the car for over six months. I'm pretty confused and hoping to bring the car with me, but if VRT costs are too high, I'll have to sell before the move - any info is greatly appreciated

Thank you, John

I intend to replace my car soon with something more powerful than my 1.0-litre Corsa. I've been looking mostly at an Opel Astra, Ford Focus, or Hyundai i30, and my budget is up to €10,000. Would there be an obvious standout to buy in those three, or any major issues with them? Also, I cover about 650km/week between commuting and life, 90 per cent of which is on good regional roads. Would you have a recommendation either way on whether to choose a petrol or diesel engine?

Thanks

Hi.

Really useful site. I want to import a Land Rover Defender 90 from the North. It was made in June 2008; does this mean it falls under the old or new tax system? I am using it for personal purposes. As far as OMSP for VRT, do you know how the revenue calculates that?

Thanks and best regards

2012 Kia Ceed diesel: is this a reliable car? I've found a private seller with one for €6,000 - is this good value?

Does a UK Mercedes manufacturing warranty cover in Ireland if I import the car to Ireland?

Hi, I have a 2004 Renault Scenic that is still driving; what will I get from scrappage for it?

Hi there, I have a 2004 BMW 530d, still a dream to drive, it's working perfect, but I want to update; what would it get for scrapping it?

Are there any problems with a 2005 Volvo S40 1.8 petrol?
