well I looked into this today and providing your ZS180 was registered before 23 March 2006 we get put into band K which even if the CO2 figures exceed band K we only pay ?245 for the year or ?134.75 for 6 months

So ZS can stay in the garage and my ZT190+ can be kept! going to buy her some toys now lol

my tax was 135 quid for 6 months the other week..

Nice!!! bit of retro Ford!!

I was considering my Brothers Rover 45 1.6 if I had to lose both the MGs! either that or a forum members ZS120.

If the VED prices go up from ?245 at the moment which is ?20.42 per month (based on a MGZS 180 registered after 2001) , then the increase is only an extra ?15.83 per month, if you go with out one weekend per month of drinking then you can tax your car.

This tax band thing is disgusting the motorist is an easy target & being bullied here!

The Government is doing this to us! & i guess as the last Government f***** the economy up then things wont get any easier in the years to come!

I`m glad i went for my 110 last year as i was looking at 180`s myself but felt the little 110 still had the looks & the cheaper running costs made it the viable option for me!

Well put my man, i could never get my head around people selling up the first time around, due to the impending road tax, just put it into perspective!
