What is it now an extra £20. Isn't that included in the price of the car?
The basic price has gone up £400
Seems a little tight for the dealers not to cover that increase

It's a compulsory charge payable on delivery which isn't part of the basic price of the car. Like I said before, it's all in the price list.

Never mind the roadtax why do we have to pay a delivery fee of £322 in that on the road price.It always seems a bit odd.I mean you don't go and buy a loaf of bread for say 50p and then get asked for the 25p worth of diesel it cost to deliver it

yea always wonderede on that 322 delivery hmmm, id pick it up for that!

Yes i think we all ought to say that we will pick up our future cars from the factory,why does it cost £322 ,surely with say 10 on a transporter it can't be that expensive.I think all maufacturers do this.Its just a good way of getting more out of the customer while making out that the car is cheaper than it is.Fortunately for MINI it doesn't seem to stop us buying our car of choice.

On my invoice it's down under the description as '12 months RFL £125'
So hopefully my kind dealer might not charge me the extra, who knows

[HedgehogHarvey]

mine is done as RFL £163

[Rob.]

As far as I know that refers to the 163 mg of CO2 emissions. So the emissions decide which road tax band you should be in. No band exists for £163, I'd have a word with the dealer

The Road Tax on the invoice for my new MINI cooper(05 model) (12 month RFL band D petrol Auto) is £160.Mine is automatic transmission and it seems that CO2 emission is more for CVT-187 g/Km while that for the manual is 166g/Km.

Are you guys being charged for the number plate?I can't see that on my invoice.Maybe they forgot to charge for it
