So essentially:
VED will go more towards road maintenance?- good right?
And its a flat rate of 140 for all cars after 2017?
What I always laugh at is this "people won't buy low emmisions cars if the VED isn't also low/free"....
Sorry, but if you base your decision of spending £1000s on a brand new car on the difference of paying essentially £2.50 a week on tax or not.... You're mental.
My employers were all excited about their latest cars, "bluemotion" versions of the Golf and Tourag.
£30 a yr for the golf and not much more for the 4X4.
Yet they paid considerably MORE for the "bluemotion" privlege and got a crappy version of the model in the process!
