VRT on 964's and 993's

[Keggers]

Hi all

Anyone have any idea of the rough level of VRT your looking at on a nice non-turbo 964 or 993?

Cheers

You can get VRT calculation on line but for the 911 you can only choose the 997 (not much use then).
It's 30% of the open market sale value but they will check this out once your car have been valued.
I guess you need to be looking at 15-20k for VRT alone.
Just when I see a nice 993 for 32k I realise that I'll need to add 30% of about 50k to that which will bring it up near 50k.
You can't trade your 944 to a garage in UK either as it's worth a third of the price as here.

Cheers Kev. I should just ring up the VRT office but was just being lazy in case anyone else had checked it out lately.

Then again I actually really like the 944 and will probably end up sticking with it for quite a while anyway. Was just going through one of those "I've always wanted a 911" moods!

The issue about selling on something like a 944 is a problem though. Having watched the classifieds for a while it seems it is near on impossible to sell a Porsche privately in Ireland. They all seem to stay on for months and months. But then again they're all over priced relative to a UK import! It also puts me off buying something reasonably expensive and then facing the risk of not being able to get rid of it for a reasonable price if I wanted to later on.

If it helps. I paid €16,800 VRT on a '96 993 in August of last year. This was the middle value as revenue give 3 prices. Could have had to pay another €1000. The VRT valuations are from outer space though, but what choice?

Regards,
Michael.

I'm going through the same phase myself. Ive' the car up for sale, not too seriously. If someone is looking for one like it, then great. I might try again in June if it doesn't shift.
I Kayak a bit so I have another car for that so I'm ok for now. I guess, at the end of the day, if it doesn't go, I'll have a perfect 944 softie to cruise around in for the summer.
The VRT is just too muhc of a gut wrencher for me. The thoughts of handing that over to our useless government for them to waste it is sickening.

can any body tell me roughly what vrt i would have to pay on a 1990 964 c4

I have just heard about €9,500 for a 1992 if that helps. Apparently this quote was about a year old though so may have gone down. Assume a 1990 would be a little less.
