Importing to Southern Ireland
Why Import from us?
We are regular exporters to Southern Ireland, and there are many reasons why so many customers residing in Southern Ireland have already purchased their dream car from us.
As a authorised Kia Motors and Chrysler Group Dealer customers have that peice of mind that the product they are buying a genuine product with guaranteed quality! Our customers have found that, even when VRT and exchange rates are considered, our cars are considerably cheaper than their equivalent in Southern Ireland. The current strength of the Euro against Sterling means now is a great time to buy from us. Also, the new VRT rates based on CO2 emissions mean you’ll pay less VRT on most cars.
We also offer a comprehensive warranty package which will covers all of Ireland, giving piece of mind to all our customers.
It’s also a great excuse for a weekend away. We are situated in the Campsie beside the City of Derry Airport just 6 miles from the border, minutes away from the stunning Causeway Coast and all the attractions that has to offer.
The buying process
It’s so simple to import your car from us, and you can drive away the same day. Simply choose your dream car; the friendly sales team at Todds of Campsie will calculate the VRT and exchange rate for you. Payment is accepted through Debit cards, Bankers draft or Bank transfer.
From July 2008 the CO2 Emissions of imported vehicles will determine the VRT rate, which is then applied to the Open Market Selling Price (OMSP) of your desired vehicle. Contact a member of our helpful sales team on 0044 (0)28 71811611 or email sales@toddsofcampsie.com, and they will happily calculate the VRT for you.
After collecting your car from Todds, your next port of call is one of 23 Vehicle Registration Offices of the Revenue Commission. They will ask to see proof of ownership (i.e. your invoice and vehicle registration document supplied by Todds of Campsie) and ask for payment of the VRT by the end of the next working day. You will need to complete a VRT4 form.
Once your vehicle has been registered by the Revenue Commission and VRT paid, you will receive a new registration number, and will need to obtain registration plates from any motor dealer.
It’s that simple.
