Looks like band D at £125 as just below 165 g/km (164!!!) Cooper in C at £100 on DVLA site.

My mums New Model L200 2.5Di Mitsubishi Warrior is in Band D - She paid £110 in May ;-(

Spit, spit spit spit !!

Indeed!

It is nasty and dirty but for all the right reasons

Grunt!

At least it's not a Chelsea Tractor used for taxiing annoying little people to school in the morning. What ever happened to the bicycle/bus/walking

Cheers,

Don't worry, I don't think £75 a year in tax will put too many people off buying.

The S generally is still the easiest used MINI to sell, and most people buy with their hearts, not their heads.

Weird, on my delivery sheet I am sure that the dealer is charging £150. Might have to query that, or is the first tax more for some reason??

Wouldn't worry so much but I can't believe they are charging for the first tank of fuel as well!!

Cheers

Paying for a tank of fuel

, have a word. And the first tax is the same as normal, unless there saying you have to pay an admin fee that in built to the price.

I got free fuel (Shell V Power, should be

.) And my private reg put on the car free as well

. (My dealer charges £105 normally)

I asked the dealer about the 150 tax, they said it was a guestimate at the time and have now reduced the car price by 25 quid.

Fuel wise the invoice includes 20 quid for this, not sure how much fuel i get for that though.

Most dealerships put at least half a tank in as part of their pre-delivery inspection, so at least you get what you pay for!

When i worked for a manufacture they under filled the engine oi (below/minmum)l thus saving 1.2 million as the dealer couldnt claim for the top up as it was under minimum warranty claim value

sad but true

Hmmm.. Might have to have a word...
