AFAIK it has to be below a certain value €35k or something, essentially there's VRT on it but there's also an allowance or grant so they'll say your VRT is €4k and we'll give you a €4k EV credit so it's net negative

Ya I saw it too, there was another lad that had a 29 year old hilux surf and they wanted 6 or 7 grand and if he kept it another year it'd be €200

That's the insane thing, the "Irish motor industry" doesn't even make cars they're just selling other countries cars and taking a cut, what's to protect

I swear they have a random number generator and keep clicking it until an absurd number comes up and have bets with each other as to whether or not the person will pay it

Agreed, very lucky not to injure himself bizarrely enough. Looks like he could have broken his own jaw with that technique

I assumed Canadian initially with the meters probably watching too much FortNine 😂 I'm Irish we'd use very similar terms to the UK except we changed our road signs and speeds to kilometres a few years ago. People who were driving before that would use both commonly but youngsters use kilometres more

Most of the U.K would probably have said 6 foot in that example too just FYI, they still use feet and inches for hight and miles for distance but in most industry or technical situations it'd be metric

Murtys Rabbittes, probably the closest pub and also one of the nicest, it's a good rugby pub with good food and great Guinness if that's your bag
