    How difficult is it to get the tax book if you have the car and reg number? The car has been off the road for 30 yrs.

    A man is rich in proportion to the number of things which he can afford to let alone.

    Go to your Local motor tax office, they may have it on record. The Dept. of Trans. in Shannon don't keep such records. Tried earlier this week.

    Insist on keeping the original reg number - its part of the vehicle's history.
    No problem replacing the log book if you follow the procedure.

    If it's not on the computer then it's a ZV reg and then only after jumping through a load of hoops first.

    Just because of having no logbook?

    Yes, I know someone with just this problem, he has the car and the original number plates but nothing else and no record on the computer.
    The logic from the tax office is that the car could potentially have been stolen and stripped of its true identity.
    The procedure advised went something like, club verification, engineers report, Commissioner of Oaths, Rosslare and ZV reg.
