    go to the motor tax office, get the form for a statutory declaration. Take it to a garage with the car to stamp and certify the vin, then to a solicitors/commissiones for oaths and swear that its your car. (costs vary but about €25) back to tax office, they forward it to Shannon Dept of Transport who will send a new cert out to you in approx 2-3 weeks, all being in order.

    As a matter of interest what garage was it?

    No harm to say it seeing as it's shut now.

    Check if it has recently changed ownership...

    not sure if its okay to mention on the site as some times for legal reasons its taken down but it was a fairly big garage on the south side with about 60+ cars .. and suddenly all gone.
