every car should be the same price to tax . looking at used cars to buy the tax is a minfield two identical cars different rates . it was so simple before they used tax to control what you buy .2005 discovery 3 tdv6

But that's precisely the point - they need to apply some kind of incentive for people to think about their choice of vehicle. This isn't exactly a new thing, you've had 21 years to get used to it I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

But that’s the point. The incentive is set up to keep EU3 diesels on the road and scrap EU4s, which is the wrong way round to address NOx pollution.
It’s irrelevant anyway. It’d take more than £300 a year to convince me to swap my nice reliable 2.7 for a 3.0
Corrosion and Crankshafts will deal with the earlier cars soon enough. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

I had to look up what that is. The dog wouldn’t like the view out the back. Just don’t tell me it does better than 25mpg

Hi,
ours is going down by 75% this year
was £2015 last year but it will Only be £520 this year
Life is short make the most of it, decide what car you want and stump up the money to run it
Your Depreciation and maintenance is likely to be more than the tax anyway

At this rate three tanks of diesel will be more than the tax You’re right! Although sometimes you regret the cars you sold (205 and Quattro I’m thinking of you!)

It was the D4.5 that was the first to get the lower tax bracket… changes to the engine map I think (but no Ad blu)I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!
