    Just a quick question, would the vrt on a Caddy van be 50 euro, as its a proper van and not a car derived van? Cheers

    i thought that changed when the emissions based vrt rules came in, could be wrong though.

    Just a thought but why bother going to the UK for a Caddy. The auctions are full of them at the moment !

    Because they're cheap, my boss just brought in a 08 with 6000 miles on it.
    Got it for £4000.

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.

    Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles or cartons to avoid the DRS fee.

    Ye, I'm pretty sure he wasn't bs-ing me about the price. It was a main VW dealer in Liverpool. It was just mentioned in passing there the other day, I'll try and get more details. Maybe I got the ars-e end of the story.

    It seems like I got ye all excited there anyway.:D

    For the OP, the VRT is €50, got it done yesterday. We got it weighed and doe'd today.
