    My residence on the licence is the family home in Dublin. I'm still "ordinary resident" there. I just filled in my London address on the sticker on the licence application they place on the envelope. They had no problem posting it here. It might have helped that I submitted a police crime report with the application with my uk address on it.

    Why don't you flash one of your many credit cards at someone and go the whole hog and buy a dodgy licence..it would save all this hassle of having to apply, go through tests etc...

    Since your court case has probably long been and gone drdre, I assume this means you lost your Irish licence?

    dre,

    I would be very careful about talking about potentially illegal things when your sig reveals your real name, which is unusual enough to allow your address, telephone number and business interests be figured out in 0.5 seconds.

    (P.S. Im not a voyeur, just very much involved in internet privacy issues to the degree that I have done a masters thesis and written a few publications on the issue)

    if it was easy and legal to get we would all have them. There is a certain attractivness in being immune from penalty points.

    Dawood Aziz, why won't you tell us why you think you need a UK license? How did your father obtain both a UK and an Irish license?

    Have you and / or your father something to hide?

    I'm not one to get suspicious easily, but you need to answer a few questions here, mate. For your own sake!

    1) Immune from points
    2) Not easily traced by Gardai
    3) ...no, that's it, I'm out of reasons!

    If you obtain a duplicate, your original becomes void.
    If you swap your Irish license for another European one, it's sent back here and declared void.

    WRT getting a replacement Irish license from abroad (can't remember who posted that), the Motor Tax people here, from my experience, are the most helpful people you can deal with.

    I'm thinking:

    3) Provide a fake / family address in the UK to get cheaper insurance on a performance car
    4) Have a UK license to show the Gardai when they see a Golf GTi on UK plates

    I'll have to keep an eye out for a UK registered GTi outside a certain take out place in Shankill from now on...

    Well, he'll probably get away with it seeing as he'll have a GTi and 1st rate hand breaking skillz.

    @drdre: Perhaps your dad should go to the Gardai immediately and hand in one of his driving licenses. We all know his name, his home address and home phone number and all his business addresses now

    I'm not joking...

    Ah, the thick plottens!

    Seems what is being schemed is the fake owning of a car in the UK followed by a false Transfer of Residence to avoid having to pay VRT. I hope this idiotic scheme is attempted, just to see it all end in tears when the car is seized by Revenue, and humungous financial penalties are demanded before it is returned. Cop-on seems to be sadly lacking with the OP.

    Not your ornery onager

    Ah sorry, I was thinking of the thread where he was asking people to research questions he could have answered by checking the VW site, or made a phone call himself... Must have been someone else!
