Maybe An Idea To Renew VED Before The Budget

Preparing a smug grin here, my BMW i3, 12 months tax is £20, happy with that

It really makes no sense at all. My i3 has a Range Extender so it's classed as a Hybrid but I never use the REX. In 2028 when the 3p per mile comes in, I gain again because it's only 1.5p on the i3.
Typical of this government going from one ill thought out disaster to another.

You are correct but I'm the second owner as the car was a pre registered with 5 miles on the clock. It might have cost me £185 extra for the VED but I saved nearly £10k on the list price.

Good trade off. No Brainer.

Aye, it's a really fair system isn't it.

Yeah - It’s a complete farce tbh.
My wife has a Fiat 500 that she absolutely loves .
It’s a 2015 petrol ️ model and the VED is £20 / year.
It’s low ( ish ) emissions, but very high compared to our S5 of course .
£20 vs £195.00 takes some justification.
It’s not about anything else, but a method of taking money by some means by the government.
Subsidising the bill for all them hotels etc.

Presume you still get a reminder through the post? Mine's due 1st March.

Mine came via SMS (reminder) and email (with the V11 16-digit code), both this morning. If you're not signed up for electronic reminders then you should get the physical reminder through the post.

I had to pay £195 VED when I bought my MGS5 in August last year

Ditto to both these, except I bought mine, and so paid the £195, in November.

My son got his in the post Friday for his LEAF, £20. I got the email reminder today.
