Just been browsing my local stealer web site, three 405's a 14my, 16my and a 17my all 4.4 SDV8's, all with different road tax amounts?

Can someone in the know explain the logic behind this please? Current: TDV8 (3.6) RRS HSE

Ad-blue and stop/start are things which affect the emissions. None on early cars but later cars have both.

3.0 is £280

Ad-blue was introduced with stop start on the 4.4 MY 2015.5, which reduced the rate.
April this year, the system was changed to a fixed amount(£140) plus £310 for 5 years. This applies to all cars with a list above £40k. After 5 years it drops back to £140.

It's a stupid system, now. There's no incentive to buy a more efficient car if it's over 40k.

There is an incentive, as the first year rate is set by the CO2 emmissions:

ah there's the explanation!! thanks very much. I thought the last one would be to do with the new tax brackets. if I was buying a new RR I'd be getting the dealer to stump up for the first year tax as part of the deal.

Any way thanks for explaining all guys..  Current: TDV8 (3.6) RRS HSE

You don't notice is so much with a new car as the price that you've got used to the idea of includes the first year's RFL anyway!
