Anyone thinking of buying a brand new car you have just under 1 month to get one or a pre registered or ex demo to avoid paying the new much higher tax rates.
I believe a new Jimny will be £500 for the first year then £140 per year after that.

Large new cars/diesels will be dead especially a few years down the line in the s/hand market.
The govt. have lost so much money on the existing scheme they have said they need to raise tax to repair the roads.
Wait a minute wasn't that what road tax was originally for till they changed it to VED???
I've always said if everyone changed over to electric cars do you think that road tax would still be free??

Thats why we got our new Ignis when we did £20.00 a year ;) at the moment!!

we was going to get an all black one but the waiting time was about 8 weeks and they couldn't guarantee that so it could have trickled into April

And now an ignis will have the same road tax as a 4 litre audi as long as it's under £40000.

It also makes it expensive for hybrids yet fully electric cars pay no tax .... so they must not make any potholes then :dry:

Why didn't they simply scrap this incredibly complex stupid tax and simply put more duty on petrol.. so uneconomical and more milage users pay more, at least it means they'd get some income from those 10% of untaxed vehicles running around tyneside.
