Is Renault taking advantage of the VRT changes to profit from the tax difference in VRT?

Renault were selling their new 1.5 Laguna Diesel for €26590
They have now increased the April price for the Laguna to €28590
From July with the decrease in VRT the car will be back on sale for €26590!
I think that is very sharp practice and against the spirit of the VRT reduction that should be passed on to the consumer.

Look here for the car price list in Feb / 2008 http://www.simi.ie/admin/files/PriceGuideFeb08.xlsYou can see a Renault

Laguna diesel is priced at 1.5L DCI 110 ROYALE 5DR €26,590Now on Renaults website the new price for the Laguna ishttp://www.renault.ie/specialoffers.asp

The Renault Laguna III 1.5 dCi 110 ROYALE 5DR for April has been increased to €28,590

I wonder will any other dealerships follow suit and try to take the VRT reduction?
