Proving Emissions - RS Turbo S2 - VRT Rate

Flesh Gorden · 18-12-2008 02:09PM #1

Going to Re-post this here modded forum is fairly quiet

Anyone know where i can get a certified Emissions test in the uk?

service centre? MOT? any other specialized centres?

I want to bring in an 86-90 Ford Escort RS Turbo S2 ( white of course) pretty soon considering the exchange rates

ROS online was no help so I rang yesterday but the girl i was dealing was younger then me (19- found out thru sweet talking/attempt to get best price) she didn't really know how I could definitely prove emissions when it comes to calculating VRT

The good thing is at the very most I'll only pay around €700 - but its being charged at the highest rate and I don't want to get stuck with ridiculous road tax

Anyone have any experience in this - not just guessing?

You won't the car will be taxed as a 1.6 under the old system.

cool! - hope your right

I don't think a fully modded 20+ year old car would be the most eco friendly thing to import

And I don't want to see myself paying band F road tax
