Those countries had bi lateral arrangements prior to entering the EU.

UK is leaving the EU and EU arrangements existed and cannot be simply ignored.

So freedom of movement will still exist as long as you were born between 1973 and the 29th of March too?

Dare I say it but the new Rav 4 is actually nice (on the outside); real touch of santa fe at the front and X5/Tiguan at the rear and c pillar. Obviously the inside is typical dull and dreary grey toyota but its an improvement

I've driven some new cars, some old cars.
Some good, some bad.
Some I paid for, some were paid for by someone else.
Who paid never made a bit of difference to how they ran.

Mary Brosnan has been on the dole for years, has got a free house from council, 4k grant to furnish it and now is getting a free car!

Look at her threads!

"It’s quiet simple really, if going back to work does not get you better off financially then stay on dole. What is the problem with being on it for life. People need to get real here, all these dole bashers with their big erection claiming they fund a doles person lifestyle."

First post on Boards.

Car allowance
I would love to get back working but I would need a car to get to the bigger towns where employment is.
When I got my house I got a €4,000 furniture allowance and I’m wondering is there an allowance for a car or public transport even.

no!

To not ignore something doesn't automatically mean to adopt and accept, it can mean to adapt and alter to circumstances too!

Last of the affordable non-hybrid Corollas

Just noticed you can only get a non-hybrid Yaris in the bog Terra spec, wheel covers, no fogs, black plastic door handles and mirrors. And it's still 17.5k lol! The hybrid luna is 2k more!

Do you really need a hybrid in a city car, a 1.0 petrol will be just as frugal and will cost less to buy!

Think Toyota might have been too brave too soon with their hybrids!

Will all their diesel Avensis, Rav 4, Corolla, Auris drivers transfer to hybrids?

Their website still says you can get the 1.0 and 1.5 in Luna and Y20 specs, the 1.0 is also available in Terra(ble) spec as well. The 1.5 is also available with the godawful multidrive (for anyone who has taken complete leave of their senses).

Stop scare mongering, there will be a 2 year transitioning period after March 30th .Even if UK doesnt sign up to a mutual trade policy, which they have cited to be doing!

Cars in Uk today will have followed EU standards and to EU policies and taxes, the history of these cars can't change after March 30th!

I was told recently that if and when the brexit goes ahead people will be paying a 25% tax on them upon importation.

Is this for real? No wonder the country is fu5ked and the rest of us are scraping to get by, taxed through the roof on low to middle incomes.

You are getting mixed up with a no deal brexit & no trade agreement after the transition phase. that would mean teverting to WTO trade rules. There would be a trade tariff on imports, but not sure how high it is.... or even if imports would be possible.
This is only one scenario

Do they though, is it any significant percentage of new car buyers? Of course there’s no numbers for this sort of thing, but I’d have to disagree with this notion and say that that’s a lazy assumption.

Ask anybody esp. in a middle class housing estate, if somebody gets a newer car you can bet your bottom dollar jhonny and Mary down the street will too and so on..
New cars are a status symbols, a very outward display of wealth, the newer the car the better. They are and always have been advertised as such. The bigger the car the better as well, you don't see many men over 25 going around in hatchbacks do you?

Not shooting anybody my friend. Clarifying (to the best of my knowledge):D

You should know not to trust motor dealers by now. I had one recently tell me VRT was increased for all cars in the budget (to explain price increases).

bazz26 · 10-01-2019 1:07pm

Some truth, it went up 1% on new diesel cars.

Sow white 191 Land rover Evoke? Or what is it called. Parked next to family ran furniture place in small town. I guess business is booming.

Anyone else notice the car was bought in a Wexford dealer not a Laois one even do its registered in Laois.

It's fairly obvious on the Tiguan. Comfortline (base spec) get's halogens and no sunroof. Everything above that get's LEDs, panoramic roof and bigger wheels.

Comfortline isn't the base spec, Trendline is.

Pano roof, Nav, Rear view camera, folding mirrors, alloys, tinted rear windows, lumbar support, 3 zone climate control, front & rear park sensors and adaptive cruise control, all fitted to the 150ps version (presuming it wasn't a factory order without the tech pack).

Pretty far from a base model even if it doesn't have Xenon's or Led's and leather.

Toyotafanboi · 11-01-2019 5:50pm

I thought Trendline was done away with in the Tiguan and Comfortline was the entry spec?

Nothing odd there apart from the owner shopped around. My wifes car was bought in Liffey Valley (as they did the best deal on the trade in) but has OY plates as that's where it's registered to.

No Trendline anymore. Comfortline is base spec and you don't get the pano roof or folding mirrors anymore.

Yep.

Trendline done away with as none of the engines fitted meet WLTP at the moment. 115ps is on the way back so Trendline will return. Unsure whether the 1.4T version will re-appear.

By adding the Tech pack you get the Pano roof and folding mirrors.

Very mean of Volkswagen ain't it. Surely folding mirrors should be standard on cars of that size by now.

Yep.

Donkeygonads · 12-01-2019 5:35am

For the first 10 days of new 191 registrations ... the market is down 13.5%!

Tucson best selling , followed by Qashqai

1. Hyundai - same as last year, 2. Toyota ...down 30%

Mercedes are in 14th spot, down 60% compared to same period last year !!

Diesel sales - down 27%!

Wildly Boaring · 12-01-2019 10:19am

Can Brexit take all the blame

1. Low low sterling

2. Uncertainty - lot of people particularly border areas might just hold off and make sure of job security

3. "Last chance" to snag that UK bargain (a deal will be done particularly on cars, too much at stake on both sides)

R.O.R · 12-01-2019 11:43am

There's a lot of that, but there's also still delays in vehicles being on the ground for registration from WLTP.

Few transport delays as well.

We're forecasting a slower than usual January, but busier than usual February March and April.

191 reg cars...
