Hi, my brother has just accepted a job in Dublin, initially it's for a period of 6 months but is likely to become permanent.
Now onto his problem, he'd like to take his Porsche Boxster out there but is finiding it difficult for anyone to insure it beyond 180 days. Most insurance polices do allow European cover for a period, however he would like it to be fully covered whilst he is there.
Anyone know the rules and regulations on using a UK registered car in the Reoublic of Ireland:
Specifically:
1. Insurance
2. The length of time a UK registered car can be kept and used in ROI prior to needing registration there?
3. Import duty - If he needs to register his car there (it's over 3 years old) is this something he needs to worry about? Whate are the current rates etc.
Thanks in advance guys...
