Why should some old lady with a 2.0 petrol that drives to church and Tesco once a week pay £250 a year for tax while someone doing 12k a year in an Aygo doesn't pay anything at all....

In the current system, anything below 99 co2 does not get taxed yet because it falls under Euro 5 emissions regs yet if we were taxed on top of fuel, it would be therefore there would be no incentive to go and buy that proper eco bus rather than the one you may want which is 103 co2 which the government really want you to avoid buying due to EU fines for emissions.

So basically the answer is, f*ck off being a part of the EU! Big Grin

See i see it as the opposite, people wouldn't buy cars because they do well in some lab test that can never be recreated in the real world they would buy stuff that is actually real world economical (how many cars are actually under the 99g/km and how many are spot on the limit because that is where they placed the limit)

Also as it works on real world economy and not made up manufacturer economy it would be better for the environment as less fuel burnt is less hydrocarbons and less co2 in the atmosphere.
