    There's a VRT calculator on www.revenue.ie - will tell you exactly how much VRT you'll have to pay.

    The process is very simple - turn up at your local VRO with the car and associated paper work and some $$$. Once you pay they'll give you your new reg # for you to go off and get your new plates made.

    Note: If you were buying a car under 4 years old then you may get hit for VRT on any extras on the car but as the car you're looking at is > 4 yo you won't need to worry about that.
