Does the higher tax band affect all cars after 06?

haGGard · 31-01-11, 08:14 PM

I know the 180 owners who own a post 06 ZS are unhappy with the tax band changes, but ive spotted a mint mk2 120 with full 180 kit in firefrost red, for sale round the corner from me, and i want it. Its an 06 reg, would the higher tax band affect its 1.8 engine? Im currently paying about 140 every 6 month for my 180 (IIRC)

What would i be paying for the 06 1.8?

Cheers

1.8 engine has a CO emission of 174 according to this, go to running costs.

Does look very nice, the filter that helps it breath more easily would be better binned tbh and might be the light but coolant looks very low?!?! I am no that good on prices for the K4's so canna comment on that but would say it is defiantely worth a viewing
