CJ Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 u can import it into ireland Does that mean it can then be imported from S. Ireland to the UK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flat4_ire Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Does that mean it can then be imported from S. Ireland to the UK? im not 100% sure about what u have to produce in the UK when re-registering the irish plates to english? but i know in ireland we have no model report like that and we can import and year of car here... cos it is a DAAAMN nice car!!

CJ Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Is this a loop hole..... I wouldn't have thought so. I reckon the problem would still be the same as importing from Japan as you still have to register it here - but stand to be corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefgroover Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I have often thought of this. It not like thousands of new southern cars havn't gone North over the years, alough the currency has killed it off for a while. I must enquire about bringing a VVti into the north, as once its here it can go anywhere in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefgroover Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I am hoping there is a difference when bringing a car in from europe as opposed from japan. How come you can bring in a R34 skyline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I 'think' will be his answer....? what a stupid law? I'm probably being stupid here but what do you mean no description? is it not possible to add a description (I can think of loads of ways to describe a Supra) Will this ever change at all do you think?

By description read "model report" which is needed to get the car through the SVA. Apparently, the cost to produce the model report is in the 000's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Dublin Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 The draw back is that if you want to register the car in Ireland, it is not free, we have a fairly hefty VRT (Vehicle Registration Tax) which is calculated at 30% of the estimated market value of the car (usually the trade price) Have a look at https://www.ros.ie/VRTEnquiryServlet/showCarCalculator Fill in the details and you're looking at a couple of thousand Euro in VRT which may negate any saving you may think you are making.
