Thinking of bringing my car from the States...

Hi l am thinking about bringing my car from USA it is a Honda Odyssey 2007 3.5 liter 6 cylinder how much would it be to tax in lreland

Our answer:

Hi Stephen,

Your Honda is going to be in the top rate of motor tax in Ireland, calculated by its CO2 emissions, so it’s going to cost €2,500 annually in motor tax. I think you might be better off selling the car in the States before you leave, and then buying something similar here (such as a SEAT Alhambra or Ford S-Max) with lower emissions and more affordable tax.
