Car Tax - 1st April 2017

[Mr.OmegaMan]

Quick Question: Any ideas what the Omega will be?

[Doctor Gollum]

I believe everything registered before that date will be £140 pa...

That said, I haven't looked that closely

That's what I thought also, Seems too good to be true somehow. 

It would be simpler with one price for all cars, I can imagine the people with low TAX rate cars won't be too happy.

...People with gas guzzlers though

Quick Question: Any ideas what the Omega will be?

I looked on the Auto Express site  . . . how I read it was  . . .all cars already registered will stay on their current road tax band  . . .  so staying the same

You cannot be serious in thinkng HM Treasury would actually put it down do you 

That would be nice  . . .  but never gonna happen IMO

New rates only affect new cars......possibly.....I think.......maybe.........deffo.

[Keith ABS]

Not a spoof site is it? Just looking at the date of change is all.........

So about £515 for 1st March 2001 or later .... earlier than that £235 as I read the tables

[Doctor Gollum]

So about £295for 1st March 2001- 23/3/2006, £500-515 for post 23/03/2006 L + M respectively... earlier than that £235 as I read the tables

Very little changes for Omega then 

[X30XE]

It's a complete ****ing joke.  How they can justify maintaining the £500+ pa bracket after slashing the new rate.

Because new cars are so much cleaner. *





* -  Except VW .. and those that burn lorry fuel.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

And Fiat, and Renault....................................................and all the others who haven't been caught yet.

Who cares what comes out of the tailpipe? I know it's just £30 for my VW for the year.

10x more for the Omega however
