Shame then that I had to pay £325 in VED supplement in 2018 then again in 2019 before applying/getting only a few whole-months tax refund.

Fair point. The basic VED has always been zero in recent memory but they did apply the EVS to it for a while before thinking better of it.

I agree that is impossible, but the problem is what we actually get is more TAX and no improvemetn to schools, roads NHS etc.
The roads (at least where I drive) are worse than they have ever been. NHS is on its arse. Local schools your lucky to get into. Why am I paying so much tax again?
Its frustrating to say the least.
Please dont take this the wrong way but we are not on about tax anymore... It's some VED thing....AKA stealth tax, so yes please do carry on, I apologise
Your ire may be better directed toward the bellends spending it, rather than 'tax' itself

Well, there is also an awful lot of public debt that needs to be serviced. I’m pretty sure a very sizeable chunk of government revenue goes on paying for that…
EDIT: Yep. Almost 8% of government budget last year was on public debt interest repayments. Nice.
Mod comment : rule “4a” includes effectively not going off on political discussions. It’s sometimes liberally applied when it comes to politics, government policy on self driving for instance, but we’re seeing loaded phrases over Tax which have long since left the topic of how much, which cars, when announced, impact on car prices etc

Yep, just like the home charger grant scheme made installation costs suspiciously jump up by the grant amount overnight.

You mean the state of the roads around the whole country? Yes we have wonderful new “safety upgrade” concrete barriers, gantries for hundreds of miles and countless billions of miles of speed cameras “protecting the workforce” - which is never there, but everyone uses SUVs these days because our roads are like they have been subjected to a NATO air strike!

It needs to rise for all as ICE prices have seen large increases over the last few years. You can spec a Ford Focus over the current threshold.

April 2017 was when it was introduced. The threshold has never been raised. The actual associated VED rate though has gone up by 25% from £310 to £390. What a surprise (not).As far as I can recall this was the amount or very near upwards back in 2018 and i cant recall how much further back it goes..... Where does inflation fit in this

Can the Mods change the name of this thread it annoys me.
The only Tesla in existence when "Road Tax" was a thing was Nikola himself.
There hasn't been an actual Road Tax since 1936!
