+1.

Shame to hear that you had to sell so soon after buying, hope it's gone to a good home.

That's really terrible mate. Didn't think you'd have to pay Import Tax moving it to Ireland!?!

And your Tax is just mental, I was reading something about that the other day. Isn't the top and something ridiculous like Euro2000!?!

I think it is one of many "good points" of joining the Euro :s:s:s:s

its a disgrace they base in their value of the car, the clio was valued at 11000 euro. top rate vrt is 2000 euro disgrace, vat is up as well. you think its bad here .
i was going to register the car to my friends in the north, tax and insure it there. thats as easy way round it. but i need a bigger car for the work im going to be doing.
the guy who bought it was a really nice guy so was his father. im sure he will be on soon. absolute pleasure to deal with them both.
sorry i had to sell but as my mother always said "must do is a wonderful master"
i would like to thank everyone on here for the warm welcome and all the help i have received on here, your a real decent bunch

Cheers Jim. Was good to deal with such a nice bloke, and thanks for the fuel money

Really pleased with the car, the drive home was great fun and the car is a lot more mint than i thought it would be! Cant fault it.

Jimmygall I thought people had stopped with the lucky penny! Last time I bought a car I got it not this time though! whereabouts in Ireland you from? I'm sure you know but there are very little 197s/200s in Ireland (south) but you find the odd one! Take a look at FCI btw
