Title: Car tax
Post by: Mr Hagon on 12 April 2011, 14:12:12
Received the reminder for car tax today and it says £245 for 12 months.

However just looked at renewing it online and I will now have to pay £260   :( :( :( :( :(.

They will charge the new rate.  I have taxed perhaps 35 cars since the start of the month....   ;)

Forgot it went up this month. If you go the post office then as said above you still get charged the new rate. Happened to me a while ago :(.
