I've not posted in this thread, is there another Damp?

[Adam_Q]

I pay £99 too, how the fcuk can coldo1987 be paying 77 for six months!

Coldo1987 you do have a vtr right?

[CampDavid]

Guessing his is registered after March 2001 and thus is done on emmisions, not on engine size, hence it's cheaper

[craigy_87]

yeah got a letter in a few days ago saying 125 for a year should i be expecting to pay more than that?

[CampDavid]

no, you have a y plate on VTR then that's fine

[craigy_87]

51 plate :P but same thing really thanks :y:

[CampDavid]

No probs. It goes up if you have a post 2001 VTS due to emmisions. £210 now

[craigy_87]

fcuk that! i didn't think the mk2 vtr/s changed over the few years they were produced, same exhausts n shite.... so the emmisions should be the same right?

[Barry123]

pay for a full year then and save a bit of cash

[CampDavid]

Yes. But they only started to tasx on emmisions after March 2001. Anything before is on engine size. The VTS is in the top group, group F and gets a £210 a year fee. Last year they bought out an even higher group, G for all vehicles over 225g of co2 per kg and they're stung for £300 a year this year, going up to £400 a year next year. Piss taking? damn right

A crime against motoring enthusiasts. Makes your car sound shit, and it smells.

Should be reserved for buses, lorries and trains.

Take your "low-down torque" and fuck off in your smelly cloud of soot.

Adsayer you are a legend.

jealousy. :cool:
