Just been shocked by the new road tax bands.
I have been driving around in a 2010 Smart Fortwo as a temporary vehicle (now that I don’t have an A2).
It was pleasing to find that there is zero road tax on it.
Now I have bought a nearly new Smart Fortwo (4 months old) it was a shock to find that the road tax is £140 a year!!!!
Apparently they don’t want to encourage people to frive less polluting cars any more.
Any car even V8 juice guzzlers pay £140 a year as long as the list price is £49,000 or less.
Is it me or is that crazy?
Yet another reason to stick with your A2 Tdi !!!!
