I want you support to lobby the government to bring in a flat rate of motor tax on cars older than 10 years
So, for older cars, there’s one rate for engines smaller than and including 1549cc and one for engine sizes larger than 1549cc.
This is inline with the UK system

The momentum we have built makes it clear that the government can no longer ignore this broken tax system. These bureaucrats have punished owners of older cars for long enough and they will feel the pressure now.

Good idea. It makes no sense to penalize people just for keeping an older car on the road when it still passes the nct.

My car is 12 years old and runs perfect. Why am I being punished for not buying a brand new one??

This would be a massive help for families on a budget. Please listen to us on this one.

Finally some common sense. Should of been done years ago, my old car is sitting in the drive because I cant afford the tax on it.
