Good idea me thinks, being able to spread the cost over 6 or 12 months.

Plus you wont get that feeling of just had to Tax it before I sell it, under the new stupid system, despite the fact you would have got your money back anyway.

Thing that gets my goat is that its EXTRA to pay by D/D, bit cheeky when there is no one manually inputting it. All electronic now!
