It's the cost of three tanks of fuel ...

... if you're worried then there are lots of other cars that don't incur road tax. (Or lots more cars that incur far more - 57-plate onwards RX-8's are, IIRC, £495 a year road tax.)

I hate to think how much "tax" a year mine costs me ... I can guarantee you that £200 (ish) for road tax will be the smallest single tax payment I do pay on mine each year. (The VAT on "maintainance" will be more than that and the tax on fuel is enough to make a grown man weak!)

When the cost becomes an issue to me I'll get my bike out.

Common sense would suggest that if you were hoping for cheap motoring you may have chosen the wrong car

Don't blame the accounts, blame the system. If there's something in place where you can consult and pay less tax or be self-employed and pay less tax then i know i'd take advantage rather than seeing innocent £'s roll away....much like the fumes from my exhaust. But lets not get into that one!!
