I think the only really fair way to spread the road tax burden fairly is to put the whole cost onto the price of fuel. That way everybody pays their fair share. If you only do a few thousand miles per year you don't pay so much tax. If you are a high mileage driver you pay more road tax.

Oh don't I know it €1204.00 annually, €668.00 for six months or €340 for 3 months Thankfully though, my RRS was registered prior to July 1st. As any car registered after that date has it's road tax calculated on Co2 emissions. Meaning that the annual road tax on an RRS is now €2,000.00 BTW Totally agree with TB's suggestion. I've long thought it to be the fairest way of doing road tax |

In the Uk they were always worried that they would not have a tax disc to show that it had insurance, and the police clung to that idea and still do. the world has moved on and now they can look it all up on computer within seconds.
