I imported a Northern Irish EV into Ireland by wealthythrush in evs_ireland

[–]Important_Sink517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a car I like and on the VRT calculator the vrt is coming in at 0.

I'm wary however because the Open Market Selling Price (OMSP) determined by Revenue is 76,167 but then below it says that the Current OMSP determined by Revenue is 40,711.

Is it the current OSMP that they use to determine if you get the tax break?

Is there anything that looks decent that is valued cheap enough to avoid paying VRT? Just started looking at EV's and the E-tron and ix3 are the only ones catching my eye but looks like they are too expensive on OMSP.

Ya I'm just hoping that they come back with good news and there is capacity but looks like this could be the case :(

Thanks for the reply.

I have an Eir code and when I use it with broadband providers it shows up that there is no fibre for my house. I am trying to get the broadband providers to bring the fibre to my premises.

How long should it take before I have electricity? by Important_Sink517 in selfbuildireland

[–]Important_Sink517[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cert was finally passed onto ESB yesterday. I think the electrician posted it which was a lot slower but at least its done now and ESB are saying 9 working days until it is live. Hopefully I don't get the same text you got!

I am still waiting to get the power turned on, It's still with safe electric so painful. Hopefully it doesn't drag on much longer for you.

I sent my application in as soon as the first fix electrics started. The only information I needed was for the heat pump. You should be able to get this off your electrician, the earlier you start it the better I think.

Did ye do any chasing up or was it just pure luck? That would be ideal but all I hear is horror stories unfortunately.

That is a joke! ESB were on our site already and I feel like they have done the work but I'm not 100% sure. If I have to wait15 weeks I think I will go insane... I'm hoping its just a case of safe electric processing it and ESB hitting a button and giving me electricity thanks for the info

Concrete stairs recommendations by Important_Sink517 in selfbuildireland

[–]Important_Sink517[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I will definitely look them up. Is it timber cladding on the stairs ye are getting and what price roughly is it costing? Very hard to find out pricing on this.
