I was going to mention yours but forgot. What’s amazing is when I had it replated from 3500kg to 4100kg my RFL dropped £100 a year.

Ooooh yes !

As a matter of interest WHY is the road tax so high ??

THANKYOU Jaws
Re road tax ….. reckon because it’s a fuel slurping 3.0 litre …..
it’s a 2001 model so it’s not free tax or MOT for another 19 years
But it’s fun ….. :cool:

It always bugs me that my brother pays £20 for his road tax and I pay £150 when we have the same car same engine but mine is 2 years younger than his

I am not saying what the tax is on my new one as quite reasonably there would be comments along the lines of ‘you could buy there houses in Yorkshire for that’.

what hacks me off is that when you cancel the tax when selling you lose the ‘unused’ part of the month you are selling in and you lose whatever is left of the month you are buying in. So You lose both ways.

So do it at the start/end of the month - seemples
