Title: New Clause 3
Post by: Mr Bump on July 02, 2008, 18:35:20

Being voted on at the moment...

New Clause 3 would forbid the Government from applying changes in Vehicle Excise Duty to vehicles registered before March 2006




I wait with baited breath and a heavy heart  :twisted:

Gollum must have an escape plan laid out already - he surely must be stuffed come the election.

grrr  :evil:

From BBC teleceefaxtext thing:

"an attempt by Tories to stop the road tax changes applying to vehicles registered before March 2006 was lost by 303 votes to 240."

At least the beeb managed a whole paragraph without mentioning gas guzzling 4x4's or global warming lol

Glad mine's a hard top  :lol:  I just have to avoid that LEZ thingy that lives within the M25 I suppose

if yours is the Y reg in your avatar it should be compliant for the LEZ being a TD5, i checked my 02 td5 hardtop on the LEZ site and it said it was compliant

Interesting, I'll have another look  :)

I've been ranting recently that if it was a CSW or a Disco, same age, same engine, I'd be clobbered for the extra VED but not have to pay the LEZ...
