VAT or VRT on N1 to M1 conversion?
I want to purchase a commercial SUV, but I will have to convert the vehicle from an N1 to an M1 category as it will be insured and taxed privately. Am I liable for any VAT or VRT?

How much to tax a Navara for private use?
I have a 2015 Nissan Navara 2.5 crew cab I brought over from England. I’ll probably tax it for private use. Any idea how much that will cost? The tax guide lines are a little confusing as there is many exceptions, so if you can help me figure this out I’d appreciate it.
Thanks
