I friend is bring in a April 07 mini convertable from the UK. It is only got 3k on the clock. VRT is about 6.5k on this. Does anyone if the revenue consider this a new car and could also demand a vat payment? Thanks
 
Is there something about a minimum of 6K on the clock to be VAT exempt?
 
Be very careful. Has to have at least 6000km (3750 mi) on clock. If caught will have to pay VAT as well as VRT.
