Yup,no bother.Go and replace the boarded up bits with glass.And enjoy clearer view.WHY this was allowed in the first place I never understand.As they go SPA about abit of tint nowadays in the nCT but blocking off clear glass...?????Put a back seat back in it.Go down to the Revenue and NCT I belive nowadays?? and get the 4X4 re registerd and pay the difference for a private car of its type.Passenger and cargo is now no trouble,but you proably wont be able to write off the diesel against tax.:(

Folks,there is a perfectly good opportunity to protest to The water melon party[Green outside/Red inside] and Gormless coming up at the Animal Welfare dinner...[See the thread on Boards] As the old saying goes "Be there or be square.";)

Grizzly, unless you want to pay the difference in VRT as well as the extra road tax, then I wouldn't go near those windows and seats.

Two different things, and one is a lot more expensive than the other.

I'll go and protest, and i'm sure many others will go with me.

There is a lot of people in rural Ireland affected by this.

Case in point several old bachelors I know who only have a van or commercial as they need it for there job, but can't afford a car aswel.

I'd love to see Gormley bring a cow and calf in a trailer pulled by a prius :rolleyes:

You didn't say how expensive that could be. VRT on vans is 13.3% of open market selling price (OMSP), VRT on private cars under the current system is anything from 14% up to 36% of OMSP and under the old system was about 25% for larger engine sizes.

And that's the OMSP for the similar passenger vehcle that you're converting it back into. For the larger jeeps, you're at the very high end and looking at a VRT bill of thousands.

You only pay VRT if you convert the vehicle for passenger use. You pay higher road tax if you're deemed not to be using it solely for commercial purposes. Two different things, as I said.

€1000 extra tax a year, for those of us who are taxed to the hilt!

It's another attempt by the greens to get everyone living in town, no one off housing, no huntiong, no shooting! They are death or Rural life, he blamed the floods of 2009 on bad planning, not the fact that teh ESB have damned the shannon :rolleyes:

Instead "star trek conventions" :rolleyes

Whoosh!

It was a joke Tack!, the myth (or truth depending on who you talk to) is that farmers don't pay any tax.

RRPC, I'm not getting into Farm incomes or Tax affairs.
I pay "tax" lots of it.
So another "Tax" on top of what I already pay is an outrage!

There are two sides to this argument.
One Gormley is Correct and Right.
The other he is wrong.

The Ballot Box will decide his faith!

Yup,its called social engineering nowadays..It used to be known as Communism or Fascism.But in the Green case more the former.:rolleyes::eek:

he blamed the floods of 2009 on bad planning, not the fact that teh ESB have damned the shannon :rolleyes:

Welll, thats been kind of dammed since 1928,give or take,to power Ireland with hydro electricty.In that he was right more or less.Anyone who goes and builds houses on a flood plain and blocks off the natural drainage,deserves what they get.BUT it was 100% more Global warming that was at fault,not to mind according to Gormless we shouldnt have turned on the water in the big freeze so our pipes could burst instead and we could fork out via our insurances.:rolleyes: Gormley and Reality,never the twain shall meet.:eek::rolleyes:

Social engineering is something that the "green party" if they were true to there call should actual be against.

I don't know of one person that voted for them, yet everyone I know has felt their wrath

Grizzly 45 · 20-09-2010 9:51pm

Tackle.
Consider the water melon fruit!;) Green on the outside .Red on the inside!
One thing the Commies were regular bears for[no pun intended] was getting their subjects to live to the partys diktats.They described it as for Workers equality or equality of the Masses[whoever the Hell they were!].The Greens simply dress up their diktat as somthing to save the planet,or socially engineer us out of our chosen way of life as it is anathema to certain members of their more fanatical ludditeish political kommissars...er..."elected TD's":rolleyes:
Everything that has come out of GP Ireland has been a diktat on the Irish people.There has been nothing of choice,it is either Do or do without,and pay for it irrespective.:rolleyes:
