Hi this may be a stupid question....
My car tax came through today 6 months is free because it's a low emission car but for 12 months it's £20 ?? Can anyone explain to me why the 12 months is chargeable please???
Thanks

This table shows the first year rates (£0 for anything under 130 CO2 g/km) and also shows the subsequent years rates.

Thanks Tixy,
First year was free, subsequent years £20 for 12 months 6 month not an option. I can't complain a lot cheaper than my old car.3rd LBM July 2014: Debt [STRIKE]£31,416.68[/STRIKE] Down To: [STRIKE] £23,403.43[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]15th July: £25,709.83[/STRIKE] 26th March: £31,229.68
