Motor Tax ripoff

Kersh · 2004-04-20 16:36:36

How can the Government justify the means by which they charge for Road tax. The size of the engine has absolutely nothing to do with how much road you use. And a 2 litre car is not twice the price , but over 3 times the price of a 1 litre car, for a year. Not to mention 3 litre being over a grand a year. anyone else think…

I would if I was allowed to vote.

Every resident (not citizen) over the age of 18 is allowed vote. Why can't you vote?

Thanks for the info - just didn't know I could. Was told by someone in the same boat as me that he couldn't so I just assumed I couldn't but now it seems that I can - Whoo hoo.

No, you can't. Also, you must pay me €50 every week or else you will have a fatal bout of hayfever.

Yeah, that's the up to date list. Increases running rather faster than inflation.
