    How can I make a VRT Rebate claim, I believe they had my car over valued to the tune of €7000.

    If I go into 3 SIMI registered garages and get a written valuation from each would that be enough?

    The internet is your friend:

    The good news is that about 90% of appeals are successful.

    I'd say they have a lot of cars overvalued (in terms of VRT).

    Here is an old article from the Irish Times, appeal success is closer to 80% actually back then:

    But given that second hand car values have fallen through the cracks which Revenue seem to be slow to take into account I think there are good grounds for a high success rate.

    Agreed, OP - if you have solid "forecourt" prices in writing of a car, same age,spec everything - then you can't really loose but then again, this is the revenue we are talking about - like who's policing them ehhhh???
