GtiJames Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 I'm looking at buying a mk1 Mazda 3 mps and the tax on that is just over 400 quid a year! I'd love 125 quid a year tax! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt~black Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 dunno what mine is it was 4 months ago the ting i don't get is why does it matter how much carbon you produce as surely roadtax pays for the road don't tell me co2 causes potholed it should go on the weight of the car if anything?

1gear Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Firstly what you could do with doing is understanding what 'road tax' is. It isn't road tax, its VED. Money from this doesn't go to pay for roads There's been a link posted which I think explains why you pay VED. Read it, or just be another motorist without a clue.
