Budget 2008 - Car/Bike/Vehicle Tax = ???
From what I could understand (unless I have misinterpreted it) from the recent budget, in 2009 they are changing the way road tax works. Everything is becoming a 'vehicle' and it will entirley be based on emmisions.
http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Nl1/News...2008/DG_073093 What emmisions does a pre 2007 sv650 give out? and what banding are we going to fall into? Road tax could start becoming expensive. |

No, just follow the link at the bottom of the page you linked to (this link)
Scroll down and see the Motorcycle section (just realised it will cut and paste - so here it is) Motorcycle (with or without a sidecar) (TC17) Engine size (cc) 12 months rate 6 months rate Not over 150 £15.00 Not applicable 151-400 £33.00 Not applicable 401-600 £48.00 Not applicable Over 600 £66.00 £36.30 [edit - ok so I had to manually reformat]

They are the current prices, not the 2008 budget prices that will be in place from 2009

Its based on emmisions. I think from one of your previous posts you have an older porsche? I should imagine that it will be rather high

Re: Budget 2008 - Car/Bike/Vehicle Tax = ???
I would like some regard for the fact that the emissions in producing a motorcycle are that much smaller than those in car manufacture (based on the sheer quantity of metal dand specifically plastics manufactured). As well as the fact the buying second hand cars involve no manufacturing emissions. But I suppose looking for any degree of sensibility in this would be ridiculous
