Cost of road tax
 

Need road tax this month.

How much would it be for 6 monhts on a 2001 Mk2 VTR??

On the internet it said £79 for 6 months ... I swear it isnt that much!!

I just renewed my mk1 VTR (99) for 6 months & it cost me £101.75.

I would expect yours to be the same.

EDIT: just checked the DVLA site - if its registered AFTER Mar 01 then it'll be £79.75

mk1 vtr's are higher, mk2 vtrs are around £80ish i think

On my Mk2 vtr, i think i paid around £145 for a year.

Yeah the mk2's are cheaper on tax than the mk1's because they work on the new emissions system.

Did mine today mk2 vtr 159G/KM

6 Months is at £79.75
12 Months is at £145.00

£79.75 i paid for mine 2 days ago

just done mine mk2 vts £115!!!
for 6 months

Didnt know about this mk1/mk2 tax differance. :wacko:

Hate this new tax system, its a right load of crap.

Unlucky if your running a vts from next year £245.00 a year :n:

2001 March onwards are taxed on CO2 so hence the difference

gayyyy im soooo broke

79.75 vtr mk2 6months not too bad

Great :(, Stupid system.

Not if youre running a pre march 2001 VTS! Then it stays at £185 a year.

just done mine for a year...

6months - £79
12months - £145

2002 vtr

Mines £101 for 6 months, or £185 {i think} for a year! :(

I dont get that, mk1 VTR tax is higher than a mk2 VTR due to the "emissions". So why then is a mk1 VTS cheaper than a mk2 VTS (or one thats registered after 2001)

Correct me if am wrong on that though as am not to sure?

just bought mine, 185 for the year. does it really stay at this price if u got a pre march 2001 car?

Good job they dont actually check the emmissions when you buy your tax and choose to go on book figures instead!

Yes, all cars post march 2001 had to have emisions, so unless you SVA an old car for some reason, then it'll always be at the over 1550cc tax rate, which is £185 this year and will probably stay at that level-ish for the next couple of years
