How much will my 2021 RAV4 be to tax?
Hi,
I am expecting to take delivery of a new Toyota RAV4 Hybrid AWD in January 2021. Could you please tell me how much my annual road tax will be based on the new rates of tax announced in the Budget of Oct 13 2020, as I’m totally confused?
Many thanks
Larry

Should I register my imported Mercedes now?
Hi,
I have just bought a 2016 Mercedes-Benz V-Class V 250 d in the UK, which is due to arrive into the country this week. The CO2 is 166g/km and NOx is 0.063. What will I be paying to tax the car annually and on the basis there are new rules for registered cars in 2021 is there any sense in keeping the car in UK until January and registering in Ireland then?
I am a little confused now with the new regime!

Will it be cheaper to buy a VW Tiguan now?
We want to buy a new Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace as our family is growing in the New Year. Would it be cheaper to get one now or will we see much difference if we order one for January 2021?

How to change reg from UK to Irish?
Hi,
I recently bought a car from the UK, through an auction and obviously the car reg isn't Irish, it's British; where do I start in changing the whole process of the reg?

My Fiesta's stop-start won't work...
Hiya,
I own a Mark 7 Fiesta that comes with the stop-start button. As I was driving, the light came up saying that the stop-start has been turned off, and I am unable to put it back on again. The light is on and will not turn off. I have read up on possible fixes and attempted most but nothing has helped. I did not have heating or AC running, or lights on. Neither was I doing anything out of the normal. Do you know anything else that may cause this?
