    hi guys
    im goin over to uk to buy passat
    it currently has no road tax and the dealership is insisting the car be taxed for the min 6 months
    is there some way of getting a tax rebate on this as soon as i get home with the car or should i have to road tax the car at all!?/

    I'm living in the UK currently, I know that the DVLA will refund you any used months on your road tax if I were to export my car. However I assume that you have to be the registered owner of the car to do this.

    Not sure how it will work for you however not residing in the UK. Is the deal going to UK reg the car in your name, or just issue it for export. Give the DVLA a call to find out I reckon.
