  • £163 6 months??????

    £163 for 6 months road tax on the escort WTF!!! Thats nearly as much as my bmw FFS

  • #2
    It's interesting looking at the SORN stats for a lot of classic cars on howmanyleft. Most people seem to only tax their cars for the summer months then declare SORN. This must be giving the DVLA one hell of a cost in admin for only a small number of cars.
    Is it really worth trying to collect TAX from the classic car owners - I think not. It should be free!!!
