    Poxy Virus Car Planning

    Like many throughout the country, both of us are now working from home (thankful that it's possible of course) with a couple of kids driving us nuts...

    As it's obvious that further & protracted restrictions are in the (near) pipeline, it makes sense that we consolidate to a single car for tax renewal purposes.

    Co-incidentally all household motor tax is set for renewal at the end of this month (just shy of €3,000 FFS), so we've made a decision to just tax and use the one vehicle as needed ie. herselfs CC @ €200 pa tax. The other cars/bikes will be declared off road for a few months (driven on a private road from time-to-time of course).

    Anybody planning that far ahead seeing as there isn't going to be any school runs/commuting any time soon ?

    Obviously that's money down the drain now,?wish I could get that extended again
    I have the 2 family cars on the go but like everyone else will just be parked up

    Why not drive it? It’s the perfect activity, you’re in a bubble isolated from everyone!
