Petition to say NO to retrospective car tax on vehicles made from 2001 onwards


Recommended Posts

Hi

Can't see any threads with a link to this official government petition so here it is...

http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/UNFAIR-VED/. Basically as the subject says this is a petition to say no to the planned introduction next year on taxing us up to just over £400 a year on cars made from 2001 onwards. If you know of any other forums please post the link there, or email it around work, to get more people to sign up. At the moment this tax only applies to brand new cars made this year but next year onwards it will apply to ALL cars from 2001 onwards. Some high powered cars (not just 4x4's) will be taxed over £400... so all not good, especially with one of the highest fuel prices in the world (although the cost of oil has indeed gone up and which we are led to believe is the reason for such high prices most of it is actually government tax!). The US pay five times less than us but yet the cost of oil is approximately the same to them.

Cheers

Matt
