    Government **** you over

    My hopes of ever getting close to owning an RS2 are a 1:18 scale model and a magazine as Transport authority in Malta wants 12k in registration for an RS2!

    On top of that another 1,100 a year for road tax

    I already pay 1,100 a year road tax on my S2, the registration is what puts me off getting an RS2

    So how does your Government **** you over?

      I want an RS2

      In the end a big turbo would end up in the S2 because of the Government's insolence

              Funny thing is, for an S2 registration is 1.6k, an RS2 is 12k, go figure

              Our winter is from december-march or so and that's it

                wonder do they class it as a Porsche over an Audi, 12k is a lot of mulaa for pieces of paper considering your probable faster than the police from the minute you get in the door of it

                i thought Ireland was bad with taxes and vrt ect. thats pulling the p***

                  I'm already paying 1,100 road tax on an S2 and that's only because our new government lowered our road license from 1,500 euros that it was before!

                  I was tempted to just bring one down unregistered and as you said if they come after me, they ain't gonna catch an RS2

                  If you buy a very modern car here, say a Bentley, over the price you pay for the car abroad, you have to pay almost the same price in Registration tax, making the car cost you double

                        I don't pay any road tax, any registration tax, or anything else for that matter and my insurance is about 120 EUR a year on my RS4.
