Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

Is your car tax due soon? if so then don't tax it for 12 month, just do it for 6 month, it will then be due again in March 2009 (If taxed end of Aug), just before the big price increase, all depends on the car you have but you could save about £90 on the new 2009 prices, but seems as your taxing it for 6 month this time it works out about £20 dearer, so will actually save about £70.
"might" even be worth cashing your tax in at the end of August then re-taxing it from the start of September for 6 month.
See HERE for next years tax prices for your car, and HERE for this years price - BIG difference eh :mad:

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s

it doesn't affect anything older than 2001

Agree with Neil,
another "green tax" thats nothing but.

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

my fellas stays the same next year for six and twelve months, but goes up £9+ in 2010 and £15 for twelve months:eek:

Daylight bloody robbery!!!

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

Mine goes down by £10 a year, woohoo!!

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

remember the prices quoted don't take into account any rises teh gov choose to apply so your -£10 might still turn into a +£20 if they decide to raise it £30 across teh board

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

I`m down a tenner next year then up £15 the year after.....!? bizzare

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

on the plus side it does hit 4x4 owners in the nuts :D


good tip for saving money , can you do tax refunds online now or is it limited to declaring sorn ?

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

Unless your 4x4 is pre 2001 in which case its cheaper than some "family saloons"

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

Thing you have to send the sorn bit off the V5 back so wouldn't think it's possible online

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

Glad I don't buy brand new cars, seen the prices for taxing them?

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

we will be having to pay pavement tax for our shoes soon :rolleyes:

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

flippin eck, I didn't realise this was actually happening... Mine goes up to 440 next year and 950 the year after. At least it gives me a genuine reason to buy a real gas guzzler, as my current diesel gets 30mpg, but for the same tax price I can drive a 12mpg Range Rover Sport Supercharged! I can't wait till 2010, thanks for the excuse you lovely govenment :D

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

Accyman don't be giving the gov any ideas for more taxes :(

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

WE HAVE A 2002 DIESEL AND OUR TAX IS £35 FOR THE YEAR
I FEEL SORRY FOR ANYONE WHO HAS TO PAY ALOT FOR THE
PLEASURE OF OWNING A CAR NOWADAYS BUT THE DIESEL
IS EXPENSIVE SO THEY GET US IN OTHER WAYS :mosher:

It doesn't go up to 950. Thats only the first registration year fee.

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

So it is... thats a bonus then :D Still 440 a year and I hardly ever drive on the roads in the UK... never mind.

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

Yes Roy we know you hardly drive on the roads i have been in the car with you
I still have the lumps and bumps to prove it .:D

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

My "Little Car" Tax Is Still The Same :p

Re: Car Tax Due? - Save yourself £££'s
 

I would have thought they should be paying you to drive that thing mez!
