Car Tax after budget...
Evening all
My car is subject to the new rules for car tax, and i need a new disc tomorrow.
I would like to know how much i will be paying...
Direct.gov refers me to the V5 to find out the CO2 emissions, but because i have moved house, the DVLA are currently sitting on this....
Anywhere else that i can find out the emmissions so i know how much money i need to take to the post office tomorrow?

Re: Car Tax after budget...
Damn you just fit into the rules then. Could you phone the DVLA and ask for your Co2 emissions?

Re: Car Tax after budget...
I could do... but i need to get the car tax tomorrow, so i might as well just take extra money with me...
I have checked the owners manual and it doesn't tell me the emissions either

You can search here to find most makes and models

It covers cars from late 2001 onwards so yours might be listed.

Re: Car Tax after budget...
Have they not sent you a reminder? It say the band on that.
Other than that, you could try buying it online and it would automatically select the right band:

I have got the reminder, but it doesn't state the band... maybe because it was sent before the budget

All cars made before 2001 are still charged at the old rates.
