PLEASE Please pass this link on to everyone.

Petition to: Remove the unfair and unjust retrospective Vehicle Execise Duty levy (back to 2001 year vehicles) as announced in the Budget on 12/3/08.

Don't forget to fill it out yourself

A really good idea seeing as the supercharged S goes up to £310

I agree whole heartedly with this unfair back-dating....even though I only pay £35 p/a.
However, if they climb down on this......they will have to claw in the tax from somewhere else because they have screwed up our country's finances so so so badly

Car tax rising so quickly is a JOKE!!!!

Exactly, it shouldn't exist for one, but the only fairish way is to impose it upon cars ordered, not those in existence - you didn't realise that this was going to happen until now and you could have had your car for years.

Has any of these pointless petitions actually changed anything apart from clogging up mail servers with spam?

Mini-Trainer · Jul 11th, 2008, 05:31 PM

Signed but will it do any good?????????

Electric Sheep · Jul 11th, 2008, 06:36 PM

Is there a petition we can sign to urge the government to go ahead with the duty increase?
