E92 M3 or E63 M6

[Gaz]

is that definite though? If that was the case how come there are post July 2008 cars knocking about on Co2 tax rates?

The lack of details on the vrt calculator (and what I've been told) would lead me to believe that VRT on an M3 would be well saucy. I really don't like the idea of me rocking up and getting hit with a totally unknown tax bill, I'd like to at least have a ball park figure. I haven't heard of anyone importing one this year.

Thanks

Yes it’s what ever is the cheaper option I had a 2008 525d LCI (3.0) which was registered in January of 2008
Technically if that was an Irish car the tax would have been €1494 at the time but because it was an import the tax was CO2 based and was €750 as this was the cheaper option it’s what ever benefits the car at the time. One thing the revenue dont screw you on here ��.. and as for vrt on an M3, my mate imported a 2009 E90 M3 in December ‘20 and paid €9500 in January. Had to be presented and assessed first as it was not on the system for quotation.

Thanks, the document says "Cars registered outside of the State on or after 1 January 2008 and subsequently registered in the State on or after 1 July 2008 will have their motor tax based on the new CO2 system".

Clear as mud as I know if you import a pre July 2008 you'll definitely get the best value system.

December 2020 was before e92 prices went a bit nuts. If I run the risk of shelling out 35k for one it would want to have everything I'd like to have especially DCT, rod bearings sorted etc.

Sorry Ketron, I kind of feel obliged to help you find one now.

On the M6 front lovely low mileage one up north with full bmw extended warranty and an eisenmann exhaust.

Damn, looked like a tidy example and to have a full bmw warranty on one of those is priceless
