Woot cheap road tax

[Gti Fly]

Renewed my Road Tax today, I was quite shocked to see it only being £110

After years and years of driving petrol cars, getting road tax of £110 seems quite satisfying!

If only I didn't have to pay £500/yr on insurance, and my recent con £54 MOT

[devonutopia]

Yup - £110 seemed a little less than I would have expected this year.

Guess we drive environmentally friendly cars? Well you do, I kind of do.

[Gti Fly]

hehe my R32 cost me £72 to top up yesterday for 300miles. simply shocking

[devonutopia]

Chucked £40 in the mongrel earlier and i know that will take me do Santa Pod (250 miles) do several 1/4 miles, and see me a fair way back again too.

Hay, I pay £400 insurance (10y NCB) and only £35ish for MOT. But road Tax is more expansive (£120, I think)

Fabia vRS is in slightly higher CO2 bracket than PD100 TDI

[softscoop]

My vRS is only £110 for the year.

According to Parkers, the vRS is 140g/km whereas mine is listed as 138 on the logbook. I think this was from when they changed the 6th gear ratios?

[Jim H]

According to my V5, my 2004 ASZ engined vRS is 146 g/km. So this year it'll be £125

Our 2003 1.9TDI is 132 g/km, so will be £110

well my road tax is £435 for the year so spare a thot lol

[anewman]

Nearly fainted when I found out mine was £180, testament to my damage to the atmosphere I suppose. Strange that you can run more polluting cars and pay less if the car was made before a certain date and is below 1.6l though.

It's come down then (I paid £120 for mine last October)

My girlfrirends mum has a new 3 Series BMW at the moment as a hire car while hers is in for a repair - and I noticed that it is £30 for the year due to low emmisions... on a 2.0 diesel!! I know some of the new small diesels are cheap tax, but that surprised me!

we have a 1 series same engine, and can confirm it is only £30 a year, not bad for a 141 bhp car! most of the other cars in that category are lacking power and boring lol

Mines just come through the post yesterday for my vRS

£60.50 for 6months

£110 for the year

[Juego]

I'm still on the old tax bracket for my Fabia VRS

6 months is £68.75 and £125 for a year :( And the worst part it's due at the end of the month then MOT 2 weeks after along with my run arounds MOT being due in 2 and a bit weeks! :(
