Vrt problem with motor dealer

Aly Daly · 2021-12-16 22:23:05

I am having serious problems with a motor dealer in the South East who refuses to Vrt a UK import jeep i have purchased from him, the issue has been going on since July & I am continously been given the runaround, the dealer has been selling exclusively UK imports so I am assuming there are many in the same situation.

User1998, the vehicle price is relatively ok as it stands because the dealer told me the vrt was low & would incur no vat due as it was an ex fleet vehicle which is rubbish , the original price is similar to what it would be worth in the UK,i presume I would have to take less for it in an auction setting than a private sale. I reiterate that the vehicle was sold Vrt, vat, duty inclusive of purchase price in other words sold on Irish plates as is standard practice,. The con was in that he got the money out of me & told me to drive away after showing me an official Vrt inspection appointment for my vehicle the following week which of course he promptly cancelled. I am in business 30 years & I don't know why but I said I'd run with it,a mixture of greed & naivety I'm afraid.I am desperately embarrassed about the whole mess.
