Stupid Question

Fermec

Hi All, I Know this Seems Lika Stupid Question, But im gonna Ask it Anyway, Im Looking at a Second Hand Jeep @ the Moment, Thinking of Buying it
, Its a 10 KY Reg. My question is can you a get a Reg Changed? To What ever County You Live in? .. Say instead of a 1O KY, Change it to a 10 D Or 1O C? Etc....If so How is it done,Do they give you the Last Number of the Year in your County? & Also How Much would it cost?. Thanks in Advance.:)

Correct it is not the most intelligent question I have ever seen, are you Eamon Gilmore who refuses to recognise that there is anything outside of Dublin?

Why isn't is intelligent?

Fact that unfortunately answer is no, doesn't make question stupid.

No can't be done.

Do you have the reg 10 KY 69 by any chance?

I said it was not the most intelligent question I had ever seen, the person who posted it said it was a stupid question not me. I cannot understand what the problem is if the reg is from a different county.

There was a proposal made by the SIMI to introduce a system whereby someone could do a reg change to a different county but nothing has come of it so far.

If it was brought in I would definitely avail of it for my own car which has a poxy RN reg on it (no offence intended to any Roscommon members :pac:)

Fermec

Thought so:D , No im a Cork Man Actually! Its a Higher Reg than 69, But its still an Early 10 Reg, So Keep Guessing. So now ye can undrestand why i want to change the Reg. Its like a Dub driving around in a Meath Car, They would do it but....

corktina

i don't undrestand the capitals....

Fermec

I Was Gonna Let someone finish the Sentance for me. Seriously tho i suppose if the Car is in good Condition i shoundt br Worried about What Reg is on it.

Because when it happens (reg is from different county) then the whole idea of having a country indicated on the reg number makes no sense.

Well Now that iv Got ye all Talking, & Pointing Guns @ each other:) Ye Might as wellgive me yer Opinion on the Car/jeep in Question , tIst a 1O Mitisbusihi Pajero Commercial with only 22,ooo miles on the Clock. Sounds a bit too Low to me, But its a Dealer in Dublin, who is SIMI & All the Rest. He is Looking for 25,ooo Euro for it. Claims its one Carefull Lady Owner, Usual. its Has no Hitch, Looks very Clean allright, I think the Money is a bit Strong tho, Well they are nearly 40k new i suppose!:eek:

corktina

22ooo ? what are you typing on? An old Remington? Is your shift stuck?

Fermec

Sorry No, i was Out Last Night, it has 22,OOO Miles on the Clock.

He could change the 'ciarrai' text to the 'the lube county'.

Fermec

Probably one of Danny Healy-Rea's old Jeeps.......full of guns and whiskey no doubt.

I have no idea what the problem with the reg is, perhaps I am leading a sheltered life and glad to be doing so but can someone actually explain the problem?

Don't trust the dealer mate. RUN a MILE

There may be a way around this people. Have the vehicle registered abroad. Bring it back in. Offer to pay VRT on it and get your local "C" on the plate. Sure, it'll cost you a bomb, but who would want a KY reg on their jeep? :rolleyes:

djimi

If you reimport a car it gets its original reg number, doesn't it?

Fermec

Its Def not worth all that Hassle, Jez It Would be easier buy a new Jeep! So you dont believe a 3 year old Jeep could only have 22,OOO Miles on the clock?... I Dont think any Reputable Dealer would chance Clocking Cars these days, or maybe im a bit Green.

A 3 yr old jeep would likely have 22000 kilometers rather than miles if it was first reg'd here

I'd happily pay (a few quid) to change the reg on any intended purposes.

I'm sorry but I think anything but a D plate on a big "premium" saloon just looks wrong. Plus as a Dub I'd prefer it anyway.
