Can I use a VW Amarok for private use?
Hi,
I am trying to buy a Volkswagen Amarok because I am constantly driving around quarries as I am a truck driver, and my car just doesn’t suit the terrain. I have tried enquiring about insurance for this and they are asking for proof of my business but since I am working for someone and not owning my own business then I cannot get insurance
Is there any way I could change the Amarok over from commercial use to private despite the price of tax but just so that I can insure it as a car?
Thank you very much

When to check my Skoda Octavia's timing belt?
Hi,
I've just bought a 2014 Skoda Octavia 1.4 TSI Elegance petrol. Car has only completed 24,000km. No indication whether a timing belt has previously been changed. Car runs perfectly. Can you advise when I should start think about checks /changing the belt please?
Thanks

Is VRT higher on an Audi TT Roadster?
Hi,
I'm thinking of importing a convertible car (2017 Audi TT 1.8 petrol cabriolet) from Northern Ireland and put the details into the VRT calculator. However, the calculator only gives the choice of three 1.8 petrol models, all of which are coupes, not convertibles. Is VRT higher for a convertible car?
Thanks

Does the Kia EV3 have a heat pump?
Does the Kia EV3 GT line have a heat pump? We ordered one in early December and I think the dealer confirmed to us that it did, however I was looking at spec online and it doesn’t list a heat pump for the GT line but it does for Earth 3 spec.

What does AA approved mean?
I was looking to change my car for another and was looking at a few imported ones from a few dealers but with warnings about no history on cars from the UK, I was not too happy to buy until I noticed “AA approved" on the dealer’s ad. If AA approved, can I assume that the car is under some sort of guarantee?

How much to import a Toyota Land Cruiser?
Hello,
I am considering importing a 3.0-litre diesel 2014 Toyota Land Cruiser Icon seven-seater. However, I can't find any VRT estimate on Revenue’s site. Would you have any idea how much would it cost to import it approximately?
Cheers,
Roman
