So I've just got my first tax reminder through the post as our PHEV approaches a year old... I know the tax rates changed in 2017 (well I do know), but hadn't connected this to our new car as we went from a £0 Nissan LEAF to the MG. I'm somewhat astounded that the tax is listed as £145 for the year when it only emits 41g/CO2. For comparison my 10 year old Skoda Octavia Diesel is only £30 to tax. I rang the DVLA and they said it was banded now on the cars price, but this just feels completely the wrong way round when that's only £20 less than the normal full petrol HS. Is this right?
