got my log book back yesterday, my mk is registered as a plg, does that mean i'll be paying £180 ish a year tax?
its got a hayabusa in so should i not be paying motorbike rates?
if so is it a ballache to change what its registered as?
No - you should be paying sub 1.4L car rates - around £125 per annum i think
My Westfield is plg (private/light goods) on logbook also but was still only £125 a year.
Go on dvla site in the link and put in your reg number and make and it should tell you how much your tax is if they've updated it with your
details yet.

Forget all the above as MK is not listed doh !!
Good for checking car tax when buying a car or checking to see if someones cars taxed though.

I would say that PLG IS CORRECT.
Its Private Light Goods. ie its a Private CAR.
As to the Rate of tax, then thats another matter.
It will depend on the age of the engine like as with emissions.
If its of the correct age, with a Cat etc it should benefit from the reduced taxation applicable to that age if engine.
If not then you get lumbered with the £200 rate (cant remember the exact figure).
I am sure its got to all be on the Gov'ts Car tax website.
Also is it a Q plate??
Of course I could be wrong!
Just my 2d's worth
checked it via the link but came back 'vehicle details not found'
i'll ring them tomorrow and find out.....
Tax for kit cars has nothing to do with emissions
All based on cc, above or below 1549cc
up to 1549cc £125
over 1549cc £205

its not a motorbike is it?
i had to get mine changed mike.
had to get a local bike shop to do an engineers report stating what the engine no. and size was.
make a copy or 2 before you send it to the DVLA as they lost the 1st one i sent.
engine details on the logbook will tell you if you need to do that though
logbook has it as a 998 engine
obv from its original build
Id get it changed asap as insurance fraud is generally frowned up when you make a claim lol
