Avoid Toyota, Ford and Kia?

On the Nissan website my heap is worth 4k in scrappage off a new Leaf.

Can you get that on top of the taxi grant or can you only claim the largest single Grant ?

If you change this year and you work for Free Now they will give you up to €600 in cold hard credit against commission. What are you waiting for?

[mercenary for hire]

Yes it should be on top of the NTA grant John.Only paid 6k for it 2013..

RC I'm not coming back until this thing is settled and vaccines are given out so I'll squeeze every last mile out of the Prius.All them incentives will still be there next year.The Freenow offer is a bit miserable TBH.

[mercenary for hire]

I don't think there is a government scrappage anyway it's just a discount in disguise.Could be wrong though.

[Rat Catcher]

Ah come now, MfH... they're putting up €6,000,000 of their own money in cold hard commission against freight. Hardly, miserable. Throw in their impending investments in point to point self drive car hire, electric scooters/bicycles/rickshaws, etc and they will restart the economy single handedly. Ireland will be the envy of the developed world. We will experience migration on a scale never seen before and property prices will double every week for many many years to come.

Are they offsetting Bmw/Daimlers carbon footprint using our taxis?

They only have one building in Dublin so I can't imagine where the reasoning comes from.

[Shallowhal]

Yes it should be on top of the NTA grant

But it's not afaik.

[Rat Catcher]

I guess the firm is taking responsibility for the emissions from all the work it controls. Hence, assuming it meets it's target, by this time next year the vast majority of it's fleet will be electric vehicles and it's clients will be able to choose scooters, self drive, bicycles, etc to further improve the environment.

The price of them electric cars...Seat Leone petrol...23.500e  Electric 4.1000e...FFs

[Rat Catcher]

You'd get a nice Tesla or eTron for €100k... treat yourself FFS!

Know a driver who just got his Kia eNiro plated up, and has his €20k grant approval, plus his €600 from state for his home charger, and €600 from FN for same. Borrowed €25k at €502pm for 60 mths. Hadn't checked, but will, his paperwork to see if there is grant clawback should he decide to retire in a couple of years.

[Dr. Martin Gooter Bling]

anybody who attempts to buy an electric car for a taxi needs to be reported and brought before the courts. dangerous carry on.

You have to insure it as a taxi for 3 years.

[Rat Catcher]

How would they know if you reduced the cover to private? I know a good few men who have done that for well over the permitted 3 months, at least one of whom was assured by his broker that neither they nor the insurance firm will grass to NTA.
