I have just had this discussion about 10 mins ago with my gaffer. Absolute joke, Road tax, loads of tax on fuel, plus Value Added Tax, plus Tax on top of how much i paid for my car its all tax!
Like you say the road tax needs changing, there are more s**t cars on the road now than I have ever seen so putting high emission cars tax up has not changed anything.
Personally if they want to charge us road tax they should just intergrate it into the fuel so the more miles you do the more tax you pay end of story, then it wouldnt be so bad paying 115.9.
Although i think people that are paying over £400 for road tax is coming back down again but i may be wrong?
