Just been to the Post Office to get 6months tax...

my form said £90.75 but when she scanned it in it showed £104 !!!

it appears that if i'd have gone yesterday before the budget i'd have been ok ..

Bummer ........

bugger - so the 4x4 law kicked in for the scoob too

sad day - scoob ownership just got more expensive

! its hard enough to afford a scoob and insure it never mind everything else going up now to!

Thats crap! Luckily i got my tax last month, so dont have to worry for another 11 months!!

Tax on anything 'petrol heavy' or that throws out a lot of crap (exhaust that is) is expensive now, £210 a year I believe. Its not right but this is the way this country is going...

There where 2 cars that didnt have to pay tax on... The honda Insight (which there's only 200 cars in the UK in the first place) and another one thats not even Imported into the country... Great isnt it!?

The budget... Another way to screw the motorist right up... Not happy

Strange isn't it, if that had happened in a shop, you'd have paid the price as marked, seems the government have us by the short and curly ones.

The government rip everyone off regardless.. Whats good for them is bad for us...

Lads to be honest you havent got it that bad, i am currently paying €482 euro a year to tax a 1.8, pushes to just over €500 for a 2L and our roads in Ireland are still crap
