Why UK Owners in Ireland Choose Us
Ireland is one of the most common places a UK car ends up stranded. With the land border to Northern Ireland and constant movement between the two islands, plenty of vehicles cross over and stay — until the owner faces Ireland's Vehicle Registration Tax and realises what re-registering actually costs.
Rather than pay VRT and NCT fees on a car you may not keep long, most owners sell it back into the UK market. We buy your UK-registered vehicle as it stands, anywhere from Dublin to Galway, with none of the Revenue paperwork.
Free Collection Across Ireland
Because Ireland shares the Common Travel Area and sits a short ferry hop from Britain, collection is quick and simple — our transport runs via the Dublin and Rosslare crossings to Holyhead and Pembroke. Ireland is in the EU, so the car is exported under standard documentation, and we handle every form from start to finish.
Right-Hand Drive? No Problem
Ireland, like the UK, drives on the left — so your right-hand-drive car is perfectly usable here. That can make it tempting to keep, but the VRT and re-registration costs usually outweigh the convenience, which is why selling back to the UK trade so often works out better value.
We collect UK-registered vehicles from Dublin, Cork, Galway and every town in between — all paperwork handled, and you're paid in pounds sterling (£) on the day of collection. Get your free, guaranteed valuation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to pay VRT before selling my UK car in Ireland?
No. If you're selling the car to us as a UK-registered vehicle for export, you avoid the Vehicle Registration Tax entirely — VRT only applies when you register it for Irish roads, which you won't need to do.
Can you buy a UK car in Ireland without an NCT?
Yes. The NCT is Ireland's roadworthiness test and only matters for Irish-registered cars. We buy UK-plated vehicles regardless of NCT, MOT or tax status, and collect free from anywhere in the country.
How quickly can you collect my car?
We can typically arrange collection within 5-7 working days of you accepting our offer, depending on your location in Europe.
Are there any hidden fees?
Absolutely not. Our service is completely free to use and we cover all collection and administration costs — there are no fees or deductions at any point.
Is my offer final?
Every offer is subject to a short inspection when we collect the car, simply to confirm it matches the details and condition you described. If everything is as described, the offer stands.
How and when do I get paid?
You will be paid in pounds sterling (£) via a secure and instant bank transfer on the day of collection. Our driver will not leave with the vehicle until you have confirmed the funds are in your account.
Can you buy my car without an MOT or road tax?
Yes, absolutely. We specialize in buying cars regardless of their MOT or tax status.
I can't find my V5C (logbook). Can you still buy my car?
Yes, in most cases we can still purchase your vehicle. We handle all the necessary DVLA paperwork to confirm ownership. Please mention this when you fill out the form.
