Does anyone know anything about this car's history, was it owned by anyone on here or does anyone know the dealer?

Needs to be registered before 23/3/06 for the cheaper rate. Holds until 2010/11 and then goes up in theory.

Whats the age, model and mileage on yours? Will give you an indication of what you should be paying to change!

Yep 23-mar-06 and before cheaper tax, currently capped at £215 a year but will go up, although I doubt by too much.

True im thinking the other way round, 23/3/06 and onwards qualify for the new tax bandings hence upto the 23rd dont.

I was initially told it was the 20th March (my brothers birthday which is why I remember it) for the cutoff, mine is reg'd on 19th March (Mrs Baz's birthday, so not easy to forget that one either) biggrin
