Car Tax Rip Off Petition
« on: 24 August 2008, 10:27 »
So we're all gonna pay car tax on how much crap we put into the atmosphere, or are we.If you drive a 2.0 petrol x type jag, which is gonna be in band K next year, you will be paying £300. A VW Polo bluemotion tdi is free of road tax charges. If you only do approx 5k per year, and the owner of a bluemotion does 11060 miles per year, his/her car will have kicked out exactly the same amount of crap as the jag. Where's the justice in that?

If anyone is interested in signing the petition here's the link:

I'd like to think these things have an impact but I gave up thinking we still live in a democracy a long long time ago.
