SilverSoop Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 Just read this on the dvla website which is more alarming... For cars registered on or after 23/3/06; 6 months: £220.00 12 months: £400.00 Does that mean my road tax has gone up AGAIN from £165 to £220 for 6 months from what i paid in december?!

If i were you, if you get a tt, buy a 94' or a 95' at the latest because otherwise you will be paying what i will be... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather pay a bit more tax and have a 1998 TT supe as opposed to a 94 one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Groovy. I wonder if this will stem the continual import of cars.. ? Not that I'm against importing cars, but there are enough Supras in the UK already.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n boost Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 It is not only cars registered after 2006 as from next year all ved bands from 2001-current have been changed which is completely outrageous! My m3 is a 2002 and when i bought it,the car fell into bands for 2001-2003 which that pr..k darling has reclassed into same group as 03-06. So my tax was £210 based on original system but next year it will be £440! I would gladely pay £440 to give darling a good slap round the earhole and dye his ugly eyebrows the sad ar$ehole.

SilverSoop Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 Oh yeh as edit to my post which i put up about the prices which we will now be paying, £220.00 for 6 months and £400.00 for a year, will only come in if the carbon emissions are over 225g/km. Unfortunetely ive got no choice because its printed on my V5 as 303g/km so they have well and truly done me there!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastisnice Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 so, i don't get it, if your car is registered before than 06 you won't be hit by the new tax system??? some say yes some no, what is it then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keancy Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I checked my Tax Disk when my Hubby came home and we defiantly only paid £99 in November last year so I can't see how they would justify asking me for the higher amount this time??

danhicks22 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 This is a bit confusing. I'm currently importing a car (well, Jurgen's doing it for me) so I'm now expecting to be paying £400 because it'll be registered this year, but my previous understanding was that a car of that age (i.e. '93) was made before the regulations were introduced and therefore should be taxed in the old way - based on engine size, putting it at £185 for the year. It seems that people on here have had to do it both ways, which is pretty messed up. It's the transparency and consistency that impresses me most about our regulations...

Gazboy Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 i payed (approx) £98 in january for 6 months. car was imported 3.5 years ago Mine was imported in 2001, paid £98-99 week before last. Is this definately date of first UK registration- virtually the entire club owns post 2001 imports. Whats the C02 of the n/a's? If your V5 doesn't have C02 levels surely they cannot calculate what your emmisions are, and wouldn't the 93-97 cars have a higher C02 than the VVTi cars? 303g/km is a bit girlie...

danhicks22 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I read earlier today while I was searching for it that the early TTs have a manly 385g/km... slightly over the band G start level of ~220 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
