My sister passed on her old car to me 12 months ago.Since the surname and address are the same would I be entitled to the scrappage deal

Bryan – As it says in the article ” The car being scrapped Must have been registered in the State in the name of the purchaser of the new car for at least 18 months prior to the date of scrappage”
So – the answer is no.

If the car is being registered for the first time in Ireland ie bringing in a car from england would it be entitled for the scrappage scheme?

Angela – it is only available on new cars – as the article says ” The scheme will provide for up to €1,500 reduction in Vehicle Registration Tax on a new car “

Seamus – The rules say the new car purchaser must be the same as the owner of the old car. If it’s not her car – then the scrappage deal eon’t apply. Can your fathernot buy the new car?

Scrappage deal:
My mother wants to scrap her vehicle for a new one, its over 10 years old and insured in her name with my father as named. However the ownership of the vehicle is in my dad’s name – the garage are unsure if the scrappage deal applies. Please advise. Seamus
