Car tax laws for 2017.
« on: 15 July 2015, 21:38:57 »
Do I have this right?

There will be three new tax bands.

£0.......for electric cars only.

£140.......for everything else.

£140 plus £310 premium car tax for any new cars costing in excess of £40,000. Making a total of £450.

Autocar magazine. Apparently from the horse's mouth or George Osborne in this case.

From memory I've seen somewhere details of the new rules for 'old' cars - I'll see if I can find them.

This is without exception the single stupidest piece of tax horse sh1te in years. How absolutely ridiculous.

Just when they finally get rid of the ridiculous stamp duty they come up with this nonsense.  >:( >:(
