Bummed by the taxman

[Kerrse]

It is madness it should be a flat rate for all cars.. the whole emission things is just way to con more money out of people.

I don't want to be paying the top whack thanks    Cos you know that's what it would cost if it was one flat rate

Quit your moaning. Paid £245 last week

I feel for R32 drivers

[dolphinfriendly1012]

I wouldn't,t mind but only do about 6000 miles a year, just cause mine produces 235kgco2 (£260 pa) yet I could go and but a eleven year old hummer and pay 215 notes. surely someone who has 30 quid a year doing 20,000 a year will kick out more emissions, through engine and damage to the environment of the old batteries when there binned and cause more wear to the infrastructure. I feel proper sha**ed over. Was looking at a change to an r32 in a year but not when its going to cost over 450 quid.
Kind of rant over

[AlanD]

I also completely agree with that rant. Why just because your car is an old piece of sh!t dated before 2001 should you pay a flat rate less than newer cars?

Completely bonkers idea.

not only do they take the pi** with the road tax then there's the fuel..............

[houston]

think mine is £115 but going up to £125 for a year ..  

My heart bleeds

I would'nt mind so much if they actually used road tax (emphasis on 'ROAD') to fix the damn things. Round Muswell Hill in London, it's like the Grand Canyon!

thats why they call it vehicle tax now, hasnt been called road fund tax for many years but its a name that stuck

I pay £302 a year to tax my 1.4 and that's the second lowest tax band for pre-08/09 cars. Quit yer whining

Makes my looming £215 bill now look much more desirable
