It's a bastard, ain't it? And just one reason why I keep my 1969 Series IIa/III on the road on an Historic Vehicle (==free) tax disc.

my rangey reg sept 2001 will cost me according to parkers in 2010 £455 to tax,
how can they be allowed to do that?
I use the vehicle only to tow my caravan and I do about 2500 miles a year in it.
Any petitions against it?

i'll sign it if you put one up, i've long felt that the use of caravans on public roads should be made illegal

Shed-dragging aside, I'd sign it. Go set it up and announce it here.

for what its worth
Petition to: Remove the unfair and unjust retrospective Vehicle Execise Duty levy (back to 2001 year vehicles) as announced in the Budget on 12/3/08.
There also one on there to propose to ban all caravans by 2020

It applies to all licenced Hackney Carriage taxis (Black Cabs) regardless of age. The cab trade has had to spend a fotune on having all vehicles modified to comply with regulations. Minicabs are ordinary cars and subject to the same rules as private cars.

An energy person, appointed by Our Brilliant PM, has pointed out on national TV that there is a simple way to avoid the big increase in road tax that Freelanders will suffer.
She explained to her ignorant subjects that all we have to do is trade in our existing cars, made virtually worthless by the impending tax changes, and buy a new low emission vehicle. Simple isn't it?

Glad to see the petition link here, when I signed up there were only 86 signatures, now there's 16,000 odds. For the record mines an 03 TD4 Auto, £430 from 2010. If there can eventually be 500,000 people then hopefully it'll make the "Brilliant One" rethink. I've included Parkers excellent Road tax calculator link for all those interested, just select your model & they'll tell you how much the greedy government will con you.
ps. I should have bought a petrol V8 Range Rover, apparently it'll only cost about £35 a year more to tax than my TD4...............nice one "Brilliant One"
Road tax - Parker's

I'm appy cos can't find my 2000 L series or my 300tdi Defender on the Parkers list. I assume that all the **** in the news yesterday doen't apply to me? And my Freelander just increased in value? Might spend out the £175.00 on the tailgate window winder now. Wait aminute... Freelander......increase in value? na.

I've checked me log book and for an 02 TD4 it is shown with 205g of carbon dioxides- that means the road tax should ONLY (Ha Ha) go up to £300 then £310 afterwards- not £400.

It's the wicked Autos and V6's that are the dear ones.

Glad I sold an April 01 registered 2.2 Omega a few years ago now - just searched the Parkers guide and from 2010 i'd be paying £430!
Both my current cars must be great on emissions - even in 2010 i'll only be paying £400 for the pair of them.

so it looks like 9 million people are out of pocket.
what do you thibk of that..
is it worth pointing out that the values of these vehicles is now so low that people will run them to the earth and as such they wont go OFF the road.
same amount of vehicles on the road + same vehicles on the road, add a bit more road tax and what do you get???
well unlike the IDIOT BROWN seems to state, it wont be a greener planet with less crap being spilled out of cars. It will be a nice big amount of extra cash to keep the MPs expences up. :-(
