    I have seen a car from a dealer (registered in simi) with only 44K km, and it says commercial model... what does this mean? 5 owners being from 2013 is normal for a commercial model? or is it too much?

    Thanks!

    What make and model? 5 owners sounds like alot for a 3-4 year old car. Any link to the ad?

    Commercial means there's no seats in the back AFAIK

    It is a commercial LCV.
    You could tax it privately as it would probably be cheap anyway,
    It would be tested in a CVRT centre as opposed to an NCT centre, and needs to be tested yearly.

    How do you know it has had 5 owners? Ad says 5 doors but it's clearly a 3 door model. It has only 2 seats if that's an issue and will be subject to an annual DOE/CVRT test at €125 if taxed as a commercial. Insurance will be more expensive on a commercial than a regular car.

    Unless you are VAT registered with a need for a 2 seat commercial it might not make a whole lot of sense. If you are there are probably better options out there.

    The car is in Balgriffin motors, and I saw in their website more info, like the owners... Anyway, I am not interested in it anymore with all this info. I just want a regular but nice car :D
