is this the thing about tax being based on your emmissions on the Mot test?
Could be the b*****ds are always coming up with ways to screw more money out of us!

there's a lso a proposal to charge people £80 i think (may be £60) if they fail to renew their car tax in time. read that in paper yesterday.

That would be an absolute scandal!!

£80 stupid!!!!

I already pay through the nose for my car and van wouldnt be so bad if the revenue was actually spent on maintaining the roads as anyone whos ever driven in Lincolnshire can sympathise with.

It could be that you now need two forms of identification when you register a vehicle, it's in all the kit car mags.

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

NEW RULE

Yep your right ,if you dont renew your tax disc and do not dsclare SORN in time the registered owner will be fined £80,and to add to the misery there is NO APPEAL.

Worth living in the country just for that i think.

Basically they cant catch the people who dont register cars in there names, so guess who foots the bill.

So dont become fatally ill and end up in hospital or go on any long holidays

Bob,
Has that already started?

If not, when does it come in?

So when your fine drops through the letterbox and you look out of the window and see a stream of transits with caravans on the back with tax discs that have no relation to that vehicle dont feel to hard done by,just remember to vote properly next time.

Declare it sorn, you can still take it for mot as long as it's insured, then tax it again at the end of the month or lose a couple of weeks on the new tax, it's not that difficult to work round.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
