Vehicles 15 years or older ARE exempt from RIV. Was the vehicle produced in the first or second month of 1992? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> If not, you may want to sit on it until it is and save some headache.

RIV does not apply to vehicle ONLY imported from the USA.

This is taken from RIV website maybe you should read it
