Hello, Been wondering whats going on with this robbing new car tax?? anyone know what a standard TT pumps out the back end?? and are we going to get hit with stupid car tax bills?? I have heard allsorts of prices and have no idea what we will be paying?? :rant:

Any advice will be great?

im pretty sure it doesnt affect our cars due to there age. I beleive the new car tax rules only apply to cars after 2001

i wouldnt of thought so as thats classic car territory and you dont pay tax on cars that old

Hopefully we will be ok?? untill the next budget?? F*** you Gordan Brown I would like to see a gun to your head!!!

As there is no officially quoted CO2 figure it won't affect the 300zx.

 

The CO2 figure is stated on the log book for any car registered after March 2001 (NB read manufactured - so it won't apply to imports registered after that date providing the car was manufactured and first used before March 2001).

 

The b@stards have got me on my daily drive though :rant:

 

The SLK has a CO2 figure of 240-ish IIRC. Luckily (or so I thought :nelson: ) it's a Jan 2006 car; so I taxed it under band F as band G (for anything over 225) is currently for cars registered after March 2006. I paid £205 instead of £300; unfortunately the new bands are aplied retrospectively ingoring the prevous March 2006 cut off so I'm going to get stung next year :slap:

my mates 52 plate scooby has just gone up to £400 :shock:

I spend my days in a car chassis parts plant with 580 other people ,all breathing out co2 all the time. bloody disgusting,something ought to be done :smw:

Just find it amazing that nowt is done to reduce other c02 emissions, welding + manufacturing around the world being a prime example.

But really, who gives a monkeys about car emissions when you see india still producing noxious chemicals, banned the world over+china having smogs from burning massive amounts of fossil fuels :rant: .

Compared to them, a car spewing fizzy pop go gas doesnt seem so bad, so surely it cant be because its an 'easy' tax to get the gullible to 'buy into' :confused: .

The REAL answer is easy.

 

These tax hikes make no difference to the world, but they make a great big difference to the money the government has, I read somewhere the figure expected to be taken from cars will go up from 400+ billion to over 700 billion. Per annum

 

There is your answer. All who voted Labour go and stand in the corner.
