Hi,
I've just moved from the UK and brought my car with me.
I've owned it for over a year so should get the VRT exemption.
I'm trying to figure out if I can pay my road tax under the new scheme or not.
Has anyone brought in a car from the UK in the last few months? if so, which scheme are you being taxed under?
According to a document on the http://www.environ.ie (www.environ.ie)
[FONT='Arial','sans-serif']"New cars registered between 1 January 2008 and 30 June 2008 will initially have their motor tax charged on the basis of the existing engine size (c.c.) system. However, a low CO2 emitting new car registered between 1 January 2008 and 30 June 2008 will have its motor tax switched to the lower CO2 based motor tax rate on first renewal of motor tax post 1 July 2008, when the new CO2 based system commences.
