Best bet is to stick on a wapping great big head and flow gallons of excess fuel through it - really does make you smile when you pay less tax for a lower emission car

The 111 (k series) is the 'greenest' of all the Elises, hence it comes in at a lower tax band than any other variant.

Am sure the 111s is £125 for the year. My 1.9d polo is £195 for the year what is that all about

So why don't we get the same tax band as a Aygo ? £45 a year petrol £35 diesel (no 6 month option though

)

Yep, just got my tax reminder through £205 for a 2006 111R.

If my Mitsubishi Evo was a couple of years newer then it would have been £300 ish, no figures on the web site but Evo magazine quote it around 334 so I must be responsible for damaging a larger part of the planet then

Thinking of getting a scooter for the commute into work as I do not mind paying £50 for 200-250 miles of petrol in the Evo but when the majority of it goes into Gordon Brown's coffers I kind of resent it. Getting a scooter will mean that some of the methodone scum can suffer a bit by not getting my hard earner money.
