    whatever you do, haggle hard. Jeep sales are plummeting, and will hit the floor woth the price of fuel and vrt bs soon.
    get yourself a good deal.

    I don't recall commercial VRT being changed in the Finance Bill, so should be €50 as per usual, unchaged. You won't get a great discount as buyers for these things outnumber supply.

    ninty9er is correct. The new VRT & motor tax system is for private vehicles only doesn't affect commercials. VRT is €50 and road tax is calculated on the unladen weight of the vehicle.

    The price of Diesel lads..........and the amount of stock dealers are sitting on due to the VRT cloud and confusion in peoples minds -
    A sale is a sale - as a unit sale is a sale regardless of it being a commercial or private vehicle - haggle to get the best deal as they deals are out there to be done. Look at the bigger picture in the automotive industry.

    I agree , you will always get a discount, Toyota market share / sales have dropped recently and they will want to reverse the trend.
