I'm seriously considering bringing in an early W126 500SEL from the UK. My favourite saloon ever. An '80 one will cost maybe a grand in VRT and a couple of years of €1491 in tax, after which it will go down to the classic €46 tax

I was actually seriosuly planing to import an RX8 231 from the UK in autumn/winter 08 ...
thats a good period to buy because usually its hard for the sellers to shift at that time of year so it leaves a lot of room for haggling.
... Unfortunately due to other financial commitments at present I cant afford to import it before July 08 (and prices are usually strong in summer)
Im very dissapointed as it will be a "No-Go Car" after july as the Tax will jump from 1800cc to €2,000/yr Co2 .. and i cant imagine that the Co2 VRT will be nice either
i'm VERY dissapointed

I love them too. For me though, it'd have to be a 500SE. If you really want a LWB, then why not the 300bhp 560SEL?:)
A 500SE would probably do me
The only reason I wouldn't go for a 560 is that it was introduced in '86, so it would mean another 6 years of €1491 (9 grand :eek:) before it would qualify for classic tax compared to a '80 500SE(L)

Veggie oil project?
yes, as will my Xantia be.
I would love it if I could produce a cert showing that I have a veggie conversion in it by a sactioned supplier (e.g. ecocar.ie ) ... and I'm buying sanctioned SVO (e.g. eilishoils.ie)... and then get placed in the lowest new tax band as all emissions are carbon neutral.
But that would be asking too much.0 -

“And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”
