Porsche 918.

I'll get in first with the standard response:

Fast, cheap, reliable - pick any two.

Is Google broken ?....

Why do you care so much about the tax band?!

[mattshiz]

Mclaren P1 is cheaper to tax than my mx5

You answer is here: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=sub+10sec+to+60+hot+hatch+tax...

10 seconds to 60mph is not even a warm hatch, certainly not a "performance car"

Because some of us have to watch how much we spend, but still want a little fun

But compared to fuel costs and servicing/repairs tax band is an absolute irrelevant nothingness, unless of course its falls into the top £450 one.

Certainly not a reason to choose a car over £50 difference in ved a year.

If you want to run a car cheaply, depreciation should probably be your biggest concern; VED is amongst the smallest after fuel consumption, servicing costs and insurance.

Still, your best bet if you want a cheap-to-run modern hot (or at least warm) hatch is probably something like a Fabia VRS (the diesel one).

It was a Stupid question

[Jasandjules]

What is the cost of an MR2 to tax?!

[veevee]

Can someone tell me exactly how much will it cost to run a vehicle for a year?

Absolutely, I'd add tyres as well as it is incredible how many new cars have 17,18 or 19 inch wheels which mean you can spend £400+ on tyres in a year.

Maybe just stick to the Honda Jazz? Pretty safe bet.

My profile will tell you what it costs to run an Elise for a year, at least for my usage.

I don't think there are many cars that are run by birds...

I just want to know how much any vehicle will cost to run for me
