as far as i know as long as you have a residence over here you don't need to change plates??

 

[mikeybad1989]

I'm 23 full irish license for 5years and same no claim bonus fully comp €750 for the year in a 1.3 turbo glanza V!! I'm with Quinn Insurance and they said i would only be covered for a max of 90days over here in the UK!! Thats the quotes i have been getting absolutly nuts i know who over here in the UK would you recommend??? I don't know what the laws are like over here with Irish Reg Plates to be honest last thing I want is to be driving round and get it seized on me!!!

Ah so you made it over alright! Haven't heard from ya in months I was thinking you were away haha!

PM me Gryzor on here, he recently moved from Dublin to N.I. so he will know the score.

If you do bring you Glanza over to UK you will need to MOT it and re-register it but there is no big VRT just some registeration fee along with MOT.
When you decide to bring it back over to Ireland again you won't need to VRT it either

As always the TGTT community here to help I'm stuck staring at a computer for 10hours a day at work so its the last thing I wanna do when I go home hence the lack of time lately on the site!! Will be home for 3weeks during xmas so was planning giving her a good olde service, the full works and then drive it back over!! No point in letting it just sit at home anyways when I don't have a motor over here!! Cheers Aidan will give Gryzor a shout!! All I have seen is pimp my ride fiesta's & corsa's over here so far, so heading to a meet would be cool!!!
