Hi,

I have not been able to find any  club info' regarding the new car tax rates.

I bought my S Type in February 2020 and paid £325 car tax, I have just been reading about the new tax rates brought in from April 2020, which shockingly rise up to either £1305, or £1850 for a non RDE2 rated car.

Is any member aware if the 2007, 2.7 S Type Diesel is RDE2 rated ?

No looking forward to having to tell the wife, our old Hyundai was only £25 car tax and I got a lot of stick for wanting to pay £350 for my car.

Your lucky, £565 for my x type.

If you go to the gov website to check if your car is taxed and MOT'd there is a link there to check the rates for your vehicle. All you need is the 11 digit number on the front of the V5.

But dont worry, the s type will not be RD2 rated.

Hi Alan,

I pay the tax monthly at no extra cost. [1st June 2020 - £28.87   +6pence one month  I have just done it.]

If I paid annually it would be £346.50.

My s type is also a 2007 Diesel.  I think the s type is not RDE2 rated.  That is only for new cars,

Regards,

Peter.

The rates quoted in the original post only apply to new cars registered from 1st April 2020

Hi,

Thanks to Jon, Peter and Steve, for your input. That was a scare.

Regards,

Alan.
