tax your car here : http://www.vehiclelicence.gov.uk/EvlPortalApp/?SKIN=directgov I've just done it for our RRS, new tax disc to run from 1/3/07, get refund on old disc less 1 mth so total net cost £20 inc credit card fee, depending on when your renewal date was before you'll save up to 11/12ths of £75 less the £20 so net £48 AND defer the follow-on increase by 11mths beyond that.....

Shame - bet its because the retax rate went through the roof - I have the confirmaion though so they'd better honour it!

Next big question................................... is an RRS TDv6 considered a gas guzzler? Does anybody know what cut off emissions/engine size/mpg limits will be? Maybe not ordering a TDv8 could be going to save me more than I thought. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I guess anything with CO2 emission figures over 225 is classed as a gas guzzler Arrived - RRSport 2016 HSE SDV6 HSE Loire Blue/Ivory leather Privacy Glass Gone - RRSPORT 2010 TDV6 HSE Stornaway/Ebony Premium leather with Lunar stitching, Heated Steering Wheel and Privacy Glass.

I think you'll find you're too late fellas, Road Tax changes are IMMEDIATE so you'll have to pay the increased duty. Happened to me one year as well. It does say that on the form.. prices correct subject to government change. Good luck anyway! MY12 SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ebony/Piano/Sidesteps/Privacy/Overfinch Olympus/JLR DRLs |

But the Treasury Budget Report gave the increase date as 22nd March...tomorrow Oh well we shall see, even if we pay new price now we should be able to renew next year saving £100 before the £400 rate comes in Arrived - RRSport 2016 HSE SDV6 HSE Loire Blue/Ivory leather Privacy Glass Gone - RRSPORT 2010 TDV6 HSE Stornaway/Ebony Premium leather with Lunar stitching, Heated Steering Wheel and Privacy Glass.

Did I also hear correctly on a programme that Mr Stalin Brown is going to ban the sales of all non A-rated domestic applicances? I don't think that will stop people using tumble driers in the middle of summer. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
