So, fill in the Details for a 1.2 Nova SX and then for a Cav GSI and see what you come up with.

Good luck with the Cavalier!!!

Although if you can sell them at 36k fair play!!!

[Dod]

Its the same price as the Nova!!!

Their emissions rates are fcuked, putting it bluntly.

According to them, my GT4 has lower emissions than the N/A GT... fail. Although it would cost €2081... how about NO lol

[amggsi]

Its the same price as the Nova!!!


Came up as 7722 euro for the VRT on the Cav for me?

[Dod]

To tax then anually is as follows.

1.2 Nova €720
Cav 4x4 Turbo €600

I'm sorry but what??

The Irish Government is a shambols.

Fire FTW!!

how ****ing much

[Dod]

Ireland is a fantastic country, Beautiful Scenery, friendly People, some of the best night life around and we go and let ourselves down by empolying some ****ing idiots as people to run the country.

I swear, its like having a pornstar girlfriend. She may be great in bed, bisexual and know loads of sexual positions you couldnt have dremt up, but you could never look her in the eye without thinking "Whore".

Its because they don't hold emissions data for particular models (duhr, clearly the emissions from a 1.2 Nova SX are totally different to a Nova Merit!) so apply the highest possible tax rate.

All you'd need to do is provide evidence of the real emissions. So, tune the engine to run uber-lean, have it MOT-ed, submit emissions data. Badda bing :D

Incidentally, a Nova Merit which has what I assume to be the "normal" emissions data at 151g/km is taxed at 400 Euros, as opposed to the 720 Euros of the unknown data model.

If this was France, the Eiffel Tower would be on fire by now lol

[edit] Fack, I'd hate to be the proud owner of a brand new Evo X!
