Sorry if this is a re-post but....
Anyone know what the score is with the new tax jobbie for next year? My 2001 T4 is 3 weeks inside the new emissions lark, so the tax disc cost could rocket towards £400!! :wallbash::jaw:
There is a rumour the goverment may have a rethink by November anyone got any thoughts or news on this?

From memory, this was debated in the Commons prior to summer recess and the government did not budge on it, despite strong and convincing opposition.

Speaking to a farmer today and he was saying he has just payed £450 for a renewal on his 55 plate discovery same as last year.
His new L/R 4 dr truck will still be about the £200. mark
