BUDGET COULD HOLD A SHOCK FOR 4X4 DRIVERS

<< < (7/9) > >>

tenpolequint:
As already thought of, Gordon Brown [!expletive deleted!] is using the anti 4x4 bandwagon to sneak in another tax and of course it will include other vehicles like people carriers, sports cars but he is not going to advertise that is he. He is just going to rant and rave about the 4x4's

I should imagine it will be all new cars that will be afected.

They could record your emmissions results which could be used to then calculate your tax band.

They already Do!
The Mot station records your emissions and (Vosa) at the other end of the line state whether it's a pass or fail?

drutt:
I would imagine that they will probably use the manufactuers declared figures for the engine number.

This will of course make it somewhat hard to apply retroactively since some older vehicles are possibly not recorded in this way, and max out the test stations when connected.  Although, if it's the later they are arguably higher band anyhow.

It's still the elected governments freedom of choice to tax us what they like too.

And our corresponding freedom to prohibit them from being the "elected" government :)
