How much tax per km/mile are you paying?

Seth Brundle

I do about 15k (miles) per annum. I pay €821 annually for the privelige which works out at about €0.055 (5 1/2 cent) per mile or €0.034 per Km

Who on here is paid the most for one car in the last year?


current motor tax rates...

unkel

Tax will be €1491 come my next renewal. I do about 11,000 km per year so it works out at about €0.13 per km. Tax costs me about the same as petrol :rolleyes:

For comparison.......

Tax (Tabs) $120 23,000 miles.

That said, you pay sales tax no matter what, although its a once-off. Either at the dealer or when you register it. So based on that $322

So in eurons thats about a cent a mile. Crazy!

i do 9000 miles per annum, motor tax is currently 1131 so about 12c per mile :mad:

Current tax - 242 euros, do about 24000 miles a year. Fairly close to precisely 1c a mile.

If I bought the same car in June 08 it'd be 100 euros, so .4c a mile.

If you average average 30mpg that's roughly 1500 litres of fuel at a tax of 50c approx per litre that's another €750 which brings it up to 21c and that doesn't take into account car depreciation every year aswell (which depreciates tax and VRT from purchase price)

Yup. I'll probably get the dubious honour of winning this competition

RobAMerc

if my calculations are correct

2 * f * u * k * k * i * n *g + m*u*c*h = answer.

thats the total per annum btw

Almost exactly the same as this

Nelly23

15,000 miles a year...€151 tax = 1c per mile!! And my wee micra(wave) does around 50-55 mpg! Cheap as chips!!

bmoferrall

Annual mileage roughly 8500 km, tax from feb €1491, giving 17.5 cents/km.
Logically, I should drive(/pollute) more to get value for money.
In practice, I'll probably take the car off the road for a few months a year.

unkel

You win, bmoferrall

Taking it off the road for a few months hardly makes for a significant saving, does it? Paying for tax per year is a good bit cheaper than paying per 3 months

nastysimon

€391 and 3000miles, or 13c per mile (8c/km). Fuel costs about 19.5c per mile.

I guess the pun missed you.

Euro or Euros to be pedantic, whichever you choose

To be even more pedantic:D the plural of euro is euro. There's no such thing as "euros".

My own figures are average (9k miles, €391 tax), but a friend of mine averages 1,000 miles a year in his LS400, which he taxes quarterly.

DonJose

€391 / 30,000km = €0.013/km

Here are the sums to prove your friend is the winner:

Tax: (4 quarters * €379 ) + 11% increase = €1,683 tax over 1,000 miles that is €1.05 per km :eek:

Well, if I take it off the road for 4 months (not in one block) I'd be paying roughly €1122 p/a. Assuming the same mileage (increased mileage during taxed months only, of course!), that would bring the cost per km down to 13.2 cents (from 17.5); significant enough for me anyway.
