Is that all the tax you have to pay in the UK?
I'll pay around 800,- euro tax a year (appr. 740,- GBP)
Calculated on the weight of the car,petrol or diesel and in what region you live in.

They tax us in other ways too though.

In Dublin I pay 955 for my Td a 3.0 would be 1600 p.a. New cars in top band 225 & over are 2000. So dont complain.

the whole car tax system is floored and just money making bullsh!t.

It costs £35 a year to tax a 1.4 Diesel car.

It costs £64 a year to tax a 600cc motorbike

By paying all this extra tax we're Saving The Planet and making it safe for all the fluffy bunnies to play in.  We're definitely NOT paying for a huge bloated bureaucracy here and in Brussels, or helping Gordo to sort out the mess he's made of our economy.  Oh no.  Not at all.  Certainly not.  Nothing could be further from the truth.

All a con. What gets me about road tax is the street I live on has 4 schools a college and goodness knows how many university buildings on it, either way the amount of traffic up and down it in a day is BONKERS to put it politely. But yet there are pot holes that you could lose a house in in some cases, maybe a bit over the top but you get me. And all they have kept on doing is take up a bit more tarmac around it and refill it. What is it with these people. Have lived on this street for over 15 years on and off and it has not been re-surfaced once in that time.  In this time we have seen the A55 on anglesey grow, the M6 toll, e.t.c. Whats wrong with my street, It's only a mile long. Stupid people. too interested in how many houses they can buy or how posh their parents nursing home is.

I work for a highway authority, needless to say we dont get to see any of the money from road tax or petrol duty!  If the roads arent repaired then it becuase we dont have the money.  I think the actual amount of funding that allocated for the roads from road tax and fuel duty is around the 10% mark.

The mtorist props up this county, and gets nothing in return except the blame for 'global warming'.
