New VED and New Cars

Pretty stupid and blew the governments green credentials clear out of the water. But this sort of reply may get the thread stopped as being political. Note it would have been said whichever party was in power and imposed the charge.

and really who looks at the car tax for the first year? It is included in the on the road price and all, well I did, will do is look at the price after all the discounts. I did look at the second year tax which at £140 was actually less than my previous towcar.
