But is the system fair? Let us know your thoughts in the comments to continue the conversation.
Alternatively you can visit this one page detailed explaination from the AA which explains the new road tax rules for 2017 for new cars from April the 1st on their VED Calculator.
Athough What Car, Car Buyer, Auto Express and Car Wow all also ran great articles to explain the new car tax rules in 2017 the AA was the easiest to understand a comprehensive and simple to use guide on the changes since the tax disc online changes some time ago.

    Personally I think this is crazy, VED should be based on emissions so it gently encourages consumers to lean towards cleaner vehicles. Once there is a huge adoption of 0 emission vehicles on the road, I then think the VED could transition to a tiered system based on the price of the car. But while we have huge number of dirty fossil fuel cars on the road, VED should only be based on emissions.

    flip inheck My point was that it should be only based on emissions but the new rules will take into account the cost of the car. So a Tesla which is a premium car with zero emissions will end up paying VED when a much cheaper car with very low emissions would pay nothing. No car should pay less VED than another car with lower emissions.

    Mr B you need to get your facts right. VED does not pay for road. It's local taxation that does. VED is based on emissions but from April it will be based on emissions and cost of vehicle will also come into play. Read ipayroadtax.com for more info

    I've always thought they should scrap VED altogether and just tax fuel (even) more. Then people who do more miles and/or have big thirsty engines pay more tax and the peeps with small engines or doing very few miles, pay less. Surely that is fair? Then they just keep adjusting the fuel tax rate up and down to maintain the revenue needed to finally sort our terrible road network.

    Sounds like a reasonable system....works for all - electric peeps pay nothing, and as you say those who nacker the environment pay more, those who wear the life out of the roads with loads of miles or heavy vehicles - pay more. The granny who goes to the shops once a week pays next to nothing. Its a pay per mile and emission tax that doesn't need a load of monitoring equipment.

    So if I buy a Mustang and the listed price is £39500 I won't pay the higher VED rate of £340 from year 2-6. What if the listed price is £36000 and I add extras like auto gearbox, posh colour, custom pack etc and it costs £40200 do I then pay an extra £340 pa. The question is what do they mean by listed price? Is it the price of the basic model or not? What happens to the rate of VED -is it the listed price when you sign the contract or the listed price when the car is delivered ie there could be price increase between the contract to purchase and the delivery date?

    What ever system you have, the revenue would have to slightly increase year on year. Does it matter? If one day we all drove electric cars, we would still all be paying more than we do now. They would start taxing per us mile if they couldn't find another way to charge us though fuel.

    It seems that more people are starting to see the benefit of putting road tax on fuel, a statement I made over thirty years ago and people agreed it was a good solution then. The problem is that road tax is not used purely for the uk road system, much of it is used elsewhere and because of that the current dated system will not be changed, why would they change a system that gives them a guaranteed figure every year. If the more fair and just system of one or two pence on a gallon of fuel were adopted the economic climate will dictate the fuel consumed, if things are good we go out more so using more fuel, if money is tight we tend to stay in and so use less fuel, ergo less tax.

    Im a little bit confused by something if someone cared to explain....www.parkers.co.uk/vauxhall/corsa/vxr-2007/car-tax/ I saw this and I was curious about something. It says Annual which I will assume yearly its £300.00 but Six-monthly Road Tax is £165.00. So are you paying £165 for 6 months? and since the first year its not applicable does that mean if I bought a second-hand card I pay £300? Sorry about this I am still new to all of this and I am trying to understand the math in here.

    Ok so this is some what contradictory to what the GOV website says. According to the GOV site all tax rates for cars sold before 1st April 2017 will remain the same as it is now. All brand new cars after this date will have this VED(Showroom TAX) which by the looks of things is just taking current tax rates and multiplying them by 2. Road TAX levy should be scrapped completely and added to the price of fuel. The more you use the road the more you pay. The more efficient or economical your car the less you burn fuel and the more you can drive while paying overall less. That way the country can save money on expensive road tax enforcement tying up police services, huge court case expenses and those wishing to avoid paying the levy as its all in on the fuel. I think an extra 5pence/litre on fuel won't really show much of a impact for road users at all and would simplify the whole saga. The more you burn the more you have to fill up and the more one pays.

    VED/Road fund licence/Car tax is just a tax, which is just another way for your government to take money from you the people. So the question posed is some what pointless. Please disassociate the "name" of the tax and where the government is likely to spend it, It's a pool of money, just cus if has car tax in the name doesn't mean it will be spent on the roads. Otherwise where should the goverment spend such taxes as VAT and Inheritance? I get the intention, yes the roads are awful, but like all governments they have to make a budget that suits the current economic climate and live with not being able to please everyone all the time.

    I think it's great that the government want everyone to switch to electric cars, I have never seen a charging point where I live and what we suppose to do trail extension leads across the paths so people can prosecute you when they trip up ! It's ok for MP'S who have a good wage but the average working person who can just about afford a banger to get him to work there the people that suffer. I live in Warwickshire in UK and the roads have pot holes more like sink holes so where's the money going

    Guess what motorists? that extra money they are raising is not being spent on fixing roads its used for smart motorways, more speed cameras and traffic calming measures like speed humps and restricted speed areas, more warning signage and paint saying slow on roads and more enforcement cameras. also narrowing chicanes e.g. 7f however the problem this creates is cars are slowed down or idling in traffic which affects pedestrians more as moving vehicles are less dangerous to the air surrounding pedestrians which will then create stricter EU emission standards such as Euro 7 and 8 and more motorists will be caught out just like in London drivers who bought a vehicle 3 years ago have euro 5 diesels will now have to pay a ULEZ central london charge which discourages people from buying vehicles and rather financing which is another idea the government wants as it sees regular payments towards financial companies as stable income which means they are less likely to liquidate and go bankrupt so banks will not need to be bailed out but then again the greedy bankers will just take more risks with lending and it will cause the cunt of all res sessions big enough to bend the conservatives over and rape there trust funds. road tax that punishes low end vehicles that the common person can afford which may be less likely to have high emissions to reduce motorists on the road as the dvsa plans to reduce vehicular motorists by 90% over then next 100 years and use public roads for business and public transport. its all false economy in the end because people will tend to keep older polluting vehicles as they dont fall under cunty road tax legislation. oh and the government refuses to acknowledge they have misslead people into buying polluting vehicles so offers a 2 grand scrap page which makes no difference if someone splashed 30 grand 10 year ago

    I would like to say go and do one to the government, how dare you increase car tax when we already pay astronomical amounts of tax. For example, i own a currently tax free car. How ever I pay fuel tax, insurance tax, repair bill tax breakdown cover which is also taxed. So in short I already pay a lot of tax just to keep the car on the road, the whole reason I bought this car was to save a little money in fuel costs and especially tax! How many perfectly good cars are going to be scrapped because there simply to much to tax! And they say there going to spend money on the roads every time they increase it but we all know that's nonsense! My area is riddled with potholes and the road system is poor to say the least. Can't believe they have the cheek to do this

    Well moved from good old England to Oz and thought well maybe I should bring my cars and bike with me.?! After all it's a ZM3 and 79 camaro that I had in the states. And my bike that I used to run to work in England. Road tax here in Oz $500-$700 per car per year oh and that applies to motorcycles as well!🤔😡. Unlike England you do get a little liability cover with that but that's about to change. Roads here are crap, uneven nothing really special like the ones in France or Germany or even the bumpy English roads. Motorcycle regro in England was £75. Needless to say both cars are still unregistered and not in use. The system I like is the one in America! Where it doesn't cost you an arm or leg to own a car, which means you could own a lot. Which helps to reduce what's being crushed, destroyed and recycled. God bless the USA.

    CO2 emission-based tax is nonsens based on climate change BS. Electric cars wearing roads down as well. Fair system should be based on how much someone is usung a car-which obviously leads to fuel consumption per 60 miles or whatever distance you wish. It is easy to calculate, in average, how much car with certain engine and fuel consumption will be using roads. Another factor is weight. I'm not a physicist and I don't know if ther's much difference, in terms of wearing down a road, between 450 kg car and 600 kg car. Ther's definitely difference between small car and huge lorrie. Lorries carring goods we need so tax will end up in those goods prices anyway. This is anavoidable. That would be bad news for horses owners though, as ther's no one to participate in their hobby costs. But it's fair. What I find totally unfair is huge tax bump on expencive cars. They will not wear down the roads more than cheap cars of same weight and fuel consumption. This is just tax on wealth. If government wants it-let it be called by real name. I hate hypocrisy.

    Road tax is road tax and should be spent on the roads which it is not,look at all the potholes on roads which take 1 years to fix,then they come and just patch it,and within 12 months holes back again.If were talking about emissions go look at the SHIPPING Industry they are the worst polluters, but the government keeps that quiet, there more worried about petrol lawnmower lol than a stinking ship.
