I think maybe now is the time to move on to narrow boat, I could chug along on red duty free diesel all day without a care in the world. Cause not many people are aware that they are tax exempt gas guzzlers.


Sorry thats been TAX as from this year But they can not work out how they will collect

All MPV's do not have a heavy footprint.  My Touran, a small MPV, has a low emission figure which brings the annual road tax down to £135.

This is comparable to, and better than some, conventional cars.  As tax is based on emissions, I cannot see the legality of singling a vehicle out just because it is an MPV.

For example, it is shorter, and no wider, than an estate car, and I don't think the little extra height represents a problem.
