Reckon I'll fit three kids in back of a RAV4?
Hi, I was wondering about fitting two car seats and a booster in a RAV4; is this possible? We will have a new born and a 20-month old and a four-year old. Just wondering is a new car the only option or is there a possible combination of seats?
Thanks in advance for your help

Do I pay the NOx levy if I import my older car?
If I am importing a vehicle from Australia and it is exempt from VRT, as I have owned it for over six months, will it be exempt from this new NOx tax? Revenue states the NOx is calculated as part of VRT. I hope so or else it is a €4,850 bill I was not expecting.

I just bought a UK-reg 2014 Audi A5. How much will the VRT cost? It looks like €2,000 just for extra NOx charge.
Thanks

Cost to tax a 2010 Transit privately?
Hi.
Can you tell me what it will cost me to tax a 2010 Ford Transit 2.2-litre diesel? I want to tax it privately as I am not self employed and can’t avail of the commercial tax of €333. I’m an electrician if that makes any difference but like I say I want to tax it privately as I don’t have a VAT number. Also will I be able to insure it privately?
