Why on my vehicle order note it says road tax RFL - £163?

mark burrows · Jul 4th, 2004, 04:12 PM

Hi
Road tax on the 05 models is £145.00,aparantly the new gearbox ratios increase the co2 emmissions so this increases the road tax.

Regards
Mark.

HedgehogHarvey · Jul 4th, 2004, 04:13 PM

But my invoice is still in pre facelift prices...!

mark burrows · Jul 4th, 2004, 04:18 PM

Hi
Are you getting an 04 or an 05?

Regards
Mark.

HedgehogHarvey · Jul 4th, 2004, 04:20 PM

05 now

HedgehogHarvey · Jul 4th, 2004, 04:21 PM

i will go to the garage tommorrow and get an updated invoice.

RobHardyUK · Jul 4th, 2004, 05:09 PM

I know they are class B. I think this is about 125 quid.

As Mark says, CO2 goes up on 05 - from 163 to 166 g/km. Maybe someone's getting their £ and g/km confused! The price goes up from £125 to £145.

The emissions details and tax disc prices are all in the price list.

Rob. · Jul 5th, 2004, 03:35 PM

£125

If it has gone up on the 05 cooper I am sure most dealers will absorb this cost.

beej · Jul 5th, 2004, 04:38 PM

Renewed mine today, £125!

Unfortunately my garage hasn't

Rob. · Jul 6th, 2004, 01:22 PM

Did you guys who are being charged extra for tax order before the price changed?
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.

zyo · Jul 8th, 2004, 08:09 PM

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

ianw12345 · Jul 9th, 2004, 03:39 PM

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

zyo · Jul 9th, 2004, 06:45 PM

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.
