But they did give people on benefits more of our money

I recently inherited my dad's 2014 diesel Golf, only done 64,000 miles.

Had planned to swap it for an EV to become a 2 EV household, but it is only £35/yr VED and does 50mpg... and is cheap to insure.... and parts are cheap as chips.

So am thinking about just keeping it. I don't want to face up to £1000/yr VED every March with 2 EVs.

Fuel duty is approx £2.88/gallon or 52.95p/litre plus VAT, total 63.54p/litre. So at 50mpg you are paying 5.76p per mile. Just for comparison purposes. The other savings look good though, unfortunately.

And raising the rate as well.

The ppm rates of 3ppm and 1.5ppm are (to be) index linked

Not surprised by this.
I read a good article yesterday about the tax on EVs and private pensions.
Apparently both were kicked further down the line in the hopes that by then the economy will be in better position and they will be able to revise...
Let's see.

Let’s be really clear here folks !.
Now the government have introduced a “pay per mile” system change on EV’s and PHEV’s from 2028, this is only the introduction into expanding this system on to ALL fuel types for private vehicles.

No doubt you are correct, but why experiment on us, first.
