G, I've just looked at a website that reckons your annual road tax will cost £245 :yikes:

Seems you're right.... is there a crying smiley??? :yikes:
Still, it's a good car...maybe the previous owner sold it just because of the tax increase? But it all seems totally mad.... I drive so little in comparison to others... sob sob sob...

Have you checked your Validation character..?.. this will determine the price.

no, not yet, just googled and found various mention of it having a high tax band, and the £245 Liz mentioned for a 2 ltr,.... had forgotten about it today...:smilewinkgrin:

That's what I figured, too, got seriously worried when I saw the M1 letter... looking at band M :yikes: good grief, what madness... I guess I'll have to earn some money, won't I... not due until November 1st as 6 months was included in the purchase price.... :juggle:

They should just ban road tax and put it on the fuel....... it would make life much easier!

I've been looking at getting a land rover, seems LPG is the way forward

If it's petrol, you can convert it to LPG and get much lower tax and get twice as many miles for your money. :hurray:

You don't get any reductions in the road tax, I have a LPG converted Shogun Sport, and because it can run on either Petrol or LPG you have to pay the full price :mad2:
