Road / Car Tax advert!
« on: 27 January 2010, 07:02 »
There is a new advert on the telly now with a guy showing a lot of love for his yellow sports car (I don't know what it is?!) and buying it everything it needs.
At the end it says theres one thing he never bought it - Car Tax - and then it shows it getting crushed.

How come Road Tax has been changed to being called Car Tax all of a sudden?  I wonder if its down to the amount of people complaining about paying ROAD tax because the roads nationwide are an absolute joke?!
I've heard so many people recently saying they really grudge paying road tax as they can't get too and from work without dodging pot holes...

You're spot on - though i've always said 'I need to tax my bike /car'.

Government stealth or just we've never noticed?!
