ROI PMC Holders
Traditionally holders of the Primary Medical Certificate have bought brand new cars because they could take advantage of the VRT exemption and claim back the VAT element. Holders of the PMC wouldn't buy a Used Car because the VRT element and VAT had already been paid.
Tim Hutton of Desmond Motors, who has over 20 years experience on both sides of the border, noticed a loophole where you can buy a VAT qualifying used car and sell direct to the customer in the South. Basically what this means is you can now buy a heavily discounted used car from Tim Hutton and still avail of the VRT and VAT exemption saving you €1000's in the process.
