Right - and how many people will opt for another set of wheels??

Which means then can take their super-eco car into the next band - but pay tax at the lower level. Or am I being slightly cynical?

And also, why do few people comment on Bobs stories?

We probably don't respond beacuse we shoot off to the Link and then never get back to the original source.

Bob, your pointers are very welcome - particularly today when Wall Street
is about to open and who knows what will happen.

I supect I am not the only one sitting very tight, and the last thing I would contemplate at the mo is a new motor. I'd rather SORN mine and walk!

Beaten to it! Found out about these yesterday.
Love the idea, just a bit unsure whether I like the design on the back of the V50.
I have a feeling I might be looking for a second hand one though in three years time.

Great idea to get the emissions down and therefore the road tax, but will it stop the horrendously fast depreciation in the value of these cars?
