Road tax on private VW Amarok?
Hello I was wondering if you can tell me what the road tax is on a privately taxed manual amarok 2L tri 180 bhp I know the commercial is €333 and the private automatic is €710 thanks in advance for your help
Our answer:
Hi Fred,
You’ve just answered your own question — €710, because when you tax a commercial vehicle as a private car, for some unknown reason, you revert to the old engine capacity tax system.
