Hmmmmmmmm the VRT price he gives to clear is inaccurate - The minimal amount of VRT to be paid is approx €800 from what I believe.

Thats interesting, Cos when I vrt'd my car, the VRT guy said the minimum amount to pay is €800 on any import, mind you thats over a year and a half ago...

cars @ €475 now.

I think there was a time then they changed the system to a CO2 basis, that the minimum valuation on the system went from €316 to 36% of €2000 (€2000 being the minimum OMSP value of a car on the system). This may have changed since.

Wow €720 for a damaged hardtop? Am I reading that right. Seems excessive

mx5ash · **Posted:** Fri, 30 Oct 2009 11:32 +0000

NO that was the whole car for 720 inc the hardtop.
