Road Tax

[Ady128]

Help! Just about to order a new Cayman GTS when I was told the tax will be £855 in the first year and £450 for the next 5. I need to be persuaded to continue with my order.

Bargain compared to GT3 ! £2000 for 1st year . Didn't stop me buying the car though

Edit to add : £8.65 / week to drive the dream - bargain ( does that help )

Don't often agree with that Greer woman, but she had it right on QT last night. Charging people won't solve global warming.

Anything over 40k is extra £310 year after first year

Strange policy change as practically all cars are £140 a year with extra for expensive cars

No incentive to by low emissions - apart from 0 emissions EV

Bloody hell - I’d completely forgotten about that ! Lucky for me it’s free on my imaginary 991.2 GT3 - bargain (as is the fuel which is also free - liking my new car more and more)

Imagine how much your saving on your imaginary 991 GT2 RS

I know right, and my 911R - all good

There are two thoughts on global warming - man-made so stop subsidising reproduction and start taxing children with rebates for vasectomies; not man-made cope with the fallout of increased solar activity. Either way, taxing carbon based fuels is p*ssing in the wind!

My 991 C2S bought late last year is £170 per year (renewal came through last month) and I think there was a minimum premium in the first year. The E43 last month was about £1250 if I remember correctly for the first tax. I don't mind the new tax - it's been clear for a while what it would be.

The C2S is a vehicle tax bargain though
