Congratulations from me too... > £88 for the six months road tax (yep the bloody >thing attracts a NEW CAR emissions tax!) Please clarify if this is good or bad, I'd be REALLY happy with that kind of road tax; in the Netherlands I pay about £83 per QUARTER for my D because of its' weight... My Esort (weiging in at allmost 400kg LESS) costs me about £85, of which £48 is because I drive a diesel... A friend of mine with the same Escort, only on petrol only pays £27 per QUARTER (His car is 100kg lighter; a Diesel is built heavier...) Can anyone tell me how this works in GB?
