How to insure a car I am importing?
Hi,
I'm buying a car in the UK. I don't have a car at the moment. What is the cheapest way to insure myself for the one day for while driving it back to Ireland? I'm a named driver on my girlfriend's car but they are telling me that we can't transfer her policy.

Where can I get lease prices for company cars?
Hi,
Where can I get estimates or comparisons on the lease prices for company cars? I have a monthly allowance but have no visibility on the charges quoted from our appointed multi national leasing company. I suspect I am not getting the best lease deals available from other local suppliers. The lack of transparency in the lease market seems to lend itself to the dominant position of a major multi national leasing company.

Am I importing this car from the UK correctly?
I am purchasing a car in the UK and will catch the ferry over to pick it up.
I am looking at having a few days in the UK with the new car prior to getting the ferry back to Ireland and I will have it insured under my Irish insurance for this and will pay UK road tax to cover my time driving over there.
Is there anything else I need to be aware of or do legally to enable driving this UK reg car in the UK prior to bringing it back across the water to Ireland and the awaiting import process?
Thanks
Rob from Wexford
