Who did you get insurance from in the end?

i haven`t actualy got it yet , but i got in contact with a vintage club and they gave me a contact.i must register them the insurance
co will give you 14 days to get plates on them but i have not had time to get them registerd .you have to take them to a weigh bridge and then take them for an inspection (nct station ). i will be back in ireland for good in june and will try and get them sorted out and register them.

I have a foden in the UK (braintree) but would like to have a truck in Ireland also.

If you are considering IVETA, then I think that their limit is 10 ton GVW which is basically small trucks.

I saw somewhere that FBD do insurance, but have not had time to look into it yet so no idea about weight limits.

NCT station exam I believe is for importing a truck to check its identification. If you dont do it within 7 days of entering the country there is a e250 fine.
