Should be £190 as the Forester and Impreza are both group F cars, CO2 at 200g/km.

However there are only 2005/2006 models listed on this site.

See here for your new rates.
http://www.dvla.gov.uk/vehicles/taxation.htm

Unless you are driving a bus or are trade.

Then read the small print on your renewal form. I didn't see this until it was pointed out in the post office.

Mine will be £190 too (MY05 WRX PPP), but the GF's Clio II (DCi 100) has dropped to £50 so it almost balances out...

Jesus you guys and gals are a moany old group, Here in Ireland car tax is done by cc of engine, so my pride and joy is 540 yoyo's per year for a 2 ltr.

and if you own anything higher, you have to take out a mortgage!


So be happy for the moment!

You would moan just as much if there were no hospitals!!

Grow up and pay your way or beat the Government at its own game and buy sensible little run-arounds!!

But there are fewer hospitals now than there were last year, along with job cuts in the nhs, how do you explain that?

Also the fact that road tax is supposed to be for roads......
