It seems these days that road tax is just a green tax with low emission cars paying nothing. The stupid thing is that Rodger the rep who gets his low emmision car then racks up mega millage will be worse for the environment than say someone who buys say a 300bhp evo/ focus rs and does 7k a year. Just my 2 pence worth. No doupt Rodger the rep and the truck drivers will tell me I'm wrong though
Not a bad idea
