Buying from the Republic of Ireland

You can export all of our vehicles to the Republic of Ireland, offering you a wide range of vehicles to choose from. While all vehicles are available for export, it's worth noting that certain models may incur lower VRT costs, making them a more popular choice for ROI customers. Factors such as the vehicle's origin (registered in Northern Ireland or Great Britain) can also influence the fees paid. Our team is available to provide guidance on selecting the right vehicle for your needs and can offer insights into VRT implications to help you make an informed decision. 

VRT is calculated based on the car’s Open Market Selling Price (OMSP) multiplied by a rate that is based on the vehicle’s Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions. An additional Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) levy is calculated and added to the total VRT balance due. To estimate the VRT for the vehicle you are registering, you can use the online calculator here, which provides a convenient and accurate way to assess your obligations before you go ahead with your purchase.

The VRT process involves several steps to ensure compliance with Irish regulations. First, you must book an appointment at a National Car Testing Service (NCTS) centre within 7 days of your vehicle arriving in Ireland. During this appointment, your vehicle will undergo inspection to ensure it meets safety and emissions standards. Following the inspection, registration, as well as payment of VRT and any other applicable tax liabilities, must be completed within 30 days of the date of entry. Our team is available to guide you through each step of the process and ensure a smooth registration experience for your vehicle in Ireland.

VRT is paid upon registration of the vehicle with the Revenue Commission in the Republic of Ireland. Once the vehicle has been registered, the VRT fee is paid at the National Car Testing Service (NCTS) Centre during the registration process in ROI. It's important to note that the amount of VRT payable depends on factors such as the vehicle's market value and emissions. Our team is available to guide you through this process and provide any necessary assistance to ensure a smooth transaction.

The Euro to Sterling exchange rate is subject to fluctuations in the currency market. The Euro pricing displayed on our website serves as a guide and is updated periodically throughout the day to reflect the current rate as accurately as possible. However, please note that this rate may vary slightly at the time of your enquiry. Rest assured, our dedicated teams are available to confirm the Euro pricing upon receiving your enquiry, ensuring transparency and accuracy in your purchasing process.

To ensure clarity regarding the validity of your vehicle's warranty in the Republic of Ireland, we recommend confirming with your dedicated sales executive. While many vehicles may maintain their warranty coverage when transferred to ROI, it's essential to verify the specific terms and conditions with our team. Depending on the age and manufacturer of the vehicle you select, you may be eligible to benefit from the remaining balance of the existing manufacturer warranty. Our sales executives are well-equipped to provide you with detailed information and address any concerns you may have regarding warranty coverage, ensuring peace of mind throughout your ownership experience.

We welcome all vehicles for part exchange, including those registered in the Republic of Ireland.

Rest assured, we strive to offer fair and competitive trade-in values to ensure a seamless transition to your new vehicle. Please don't hesitate to contact us to schedule a vehicle inspection or discuss your trade-in options further.
