VED to go down in the budget?

[hahithestevieboy]

Just got my tax renewal (04 honda s2k - in the top or second top band for the year) and was expecting a bill of £265 after the govt u-turn. Got the reminder yesterday and it was £210 for the year. Anyone else had this etc?

The prices on the direct.gov website seem to have changed? If this is a re-post i'll shut up.

Yeah, although in typical fashion, it's been not-very-well communicated by either the Gubberment or the media.

Consider yourself fortunate that you taxed your car this month!

This Govt has no idea what tax reduction means and when it comes to cars it's even worse....

But it would still be £210 next month..... The car is pre-06.

Why the fk did they choose 23rd March ?

Why not just pick the first day of the 06 plate?

Ooh, thanks for the reminder. Was just wondering whether to get the car back on the road this month or delay. And a fiver's better in my pocket than the idiot's.
