    be gentle on the boot latch, they come off easily in qashqai's, but can be glued back on with suitable glue if they do

    Buying used cards is stressful! I just spent the last 2 months visiting loads of places (by train) before I eventually ended up with my Honda. Loads of wasted trips! Glade you found one though.

    It was SO stressful! And worst part was that the car we landed up buying had problems as well. But glad our car is good now and that we have something to get us around :)

    The dealerships offer hire purchase options so maybe you don`t need a bank loan.

    Hi. Welcome to Ireland, best wishes for your new chapter in your lives. I'm getting some work done on my house, and we had an engineer from South Africa, he's living here for the past 5 year along with his South African wife, they've just bought their 1st house with an acre of land, and had 2 more children since they've arrived here, he told me they're all very happy here. Even the Irish weather doesn't annoy them too much. Just to say if you're buying bigger items, always look outside of the Dublin area, as you'll often find prices are much lower 😉

    Hi, thanks for the video! As folks without a credit history, what were your initial insurance premiums like? Thanks..

  • @BiancaKade

    Our initial insurance premium was high because we weren't able to get a no claims bonus confirmation from our SA insurers. The lack of credit history is more of a barrier in getting a loan for the car.

    Hi Carole - we phoned to get quotes for the different types of cars. There is an annual tax called NCT and then on certain highways there are tolls.

    Hi Nicolas, we did not need to redo our drivers test. We exchange our South African licenses within the first year of moving to Ireland 👍🏻

    Hi, congratulation for the new member of family, can you recommend the showroom for buying used cars in a best price ? how much did you pay for yours and how much was it driven?

    We bought from a private seller which I wouldn’t recommend because our clutch gave in after 2 months. 🙈 If I was buying again I would decide based on the best price/best mileage available on car zone. I would then look at reviews of the dealer.
