Just a quick car tax question

[SinghB7]

I bought another B7 monday that wasn't taxed, I have insurance on it and mot. I want to buy tax tomorow for 12 months. Tomorow is the earliest day you can buy before 1st april, will the tax be valid from as soon as I have bought it or will it be valid from the 1st of april if I bought tomorow.


Thanks

If it's Aprils disc it's not valid till the 1st. Or you can get march but lose a month

Strange, I got my disc two weeks before it was due, only because I was putting a cherished plate on and the dvla wanted a copy of the current and new disc.

I know today is the last day to buy for march, i phoned the post office and they said if i buy today i'd lose a month but if i buy tomorow it would be for the full 12 months. Confused.com! lol

Don't think you can use it till Tuesday though

You think that's robbery I'm in Ireland and it's 760 euro for the year, you don't even want to know what it was on my last car 2.5 Quattro sport

Fair play that`s getting shafted properly, I thought everything over there runs on red diesel and kerosene

Oh it does and a bit of turf goes a long way too

Even more ridiculous - you know those huge German Hymer motorhomes that are 8ft wide, 10ft tall and 25ft long? The road tax on them is £165 - they are classed as PHG (Private Heavy Goods) which is a flat rate.

The 1.3 cdti corsa £35 a yr. then the combo van same engine £220 a year

 

[SinghB7]

New RS4 is £1000ish for the 1st year lol
Then £450/£500 a year after that
