1990 Talbot Express Autoquest 320

 ·  Posted: 18.08.2022  ·  #1
Hello wonderful people, i was hoping i could get some light shed on this. I'm considering buying a mega clean 1990 Talbot camper right hand drive. Would it be classed at vintage due to her being over 30 years old and would anyone know if it would class for vintage VRT. Shes on UK plates but im really considering buying her and vrt'ing. How do i got about it? Ring NCT centre and ask for a VRT of a campervan? Thanks all :)

Make sure they will pay any penalties, it is supposed to be booked in within 7 days of importing. if its a garage there may be different rules.

They own it since feb 22 or it’s been in the republic since then (they’ve owned it longer)?

I’d worry if they’ve only owned it since then. Why sell again so soon?

I think there are penalties if it’s been in the country over six months, no idea what they’d be though.

Been in the republic since then, they bought it in the UK to move themselves and their belongings over.

If they’ve owned it for a while in the uk before they moved, they may be able to minimise the customs and VAT due, if they import it properly themselves before you buy it. I haven’t done that myself so can’t advise on the specifics.

The Rules. transferred residency.
The vehicle must: be your personal property. have been in your possession and used by you for at least six months before transfer of residence. ie you have to show, Tax and insurance for that time .
Then you can't sell it for 1 year after, you transferred residency.
That vehicle could be impounded. It was supposed to be booked in for VRT exam within 7 days, of when came off the boat.and then 1 month to have the paperwork sorted or penalties will apply.
I would seriously suggest you take a step backwards, and keep going. or if you really have to have it ,do a deal when its on Irish Plates with a Revenue receipt.

Sounds a bit dodgy to me anyway.
Not a great van to use for transferring all your worldly goods from one country to another, even with several trips 🤨

Update: Bought this camper, Got her through import and customs this morning for 935 euro @ 13.5% VAT. I have got VRT on thursday so will hopefully just be the 200 vintage price.

All in all i should fingers crossed get her on irish plates for in or around 1300 euro ish
