New Car Tax Charges http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_depth/629/629/7293011.stm Iv been saying for a while I want a Mazda 2 - £30 a year tax
a ha , looks like i will save £30 a year on the smart car then . the shit thing at the mo is im 1g over the limit to get the tax for £35 so have to pay £115 year . its shit like but at least it will go down for the person who buys it of me. been looking at a new smart today , and looks lke that will be £20 a year , buzzin just hope when i finish my 8 year project car the tax isnt that bad - juice was 70p when i last filled it up and im sure it was £90 tax a year - 2000cc turbo
Luckily my car is a 2000 plate so i dont get double shafted this time, although if i'd hung onto my BMW i would have been in for 300 a year next year, then 400 odd after that. Its a pointless jealousy tax, used to extract as much money as possible from whoever can afford it - Green my ase
are they guna give the extra cash to the clouds,sky and ozone or use it to improve roads or boast the amount theycan spend on coffee tables in second homes
aye but it feels like they are out to get me every way i turn!!!! ....not gonna do it this week unfortunately - my lass would kill me if i left a house full of boxes over the weekend since we just moved.... and with this rain i'd probably kill myself will probably do it the week after glade next week tho Enjoy the Dig!! (Wish i was there )
What do you drive? Lambo? Its a joke eh ..... its not even difficult to have a car output more than 250g of CO2 these days - granted you can get a smaller car, but thats not a workable option because EVERYONE cant just go out and sell their car tomorrow. .... retrospective taxes are absolutely criminal in my opinion - punishing people for the decisions they have made in the past ..... I'm sure God never intended it this way!
Focus RS. If I had a Lambo I'd either be paying the pre-2000 PLG fee which is less or like £10 more for the top band. Like you say, it is criminal.
I'm gona get stuffed for the full wack :evil: fotunately ive just taxed it for 12 months at the old rate
bit mad how it'l be cheap to tax an old runner than tax a newer car . by the looks of it £185 a year for my maestro and same for the mk1 golf - but me bro has a cupra fr and itl be £400 when mine is £205 - unlucky im sure i read its going of age of car after 51 plate - any thing below that is a set rate almost half the price madness. so moral of the story is - buy a smar car and when its sunny use your classic cars
