The present road fund system is a total sham and cop out. OH and I have two vehicles. A Yaris and an X-Trail. We only use the X-trail for 12 weeks of holidays with the caravan, if we are giving more than two others a lift, picking up ovvasional bulky purchases or if OH needs car and I am taking F-I-Law shopping. The X Trail does 5000 miles a year. Road fund is £230 ( I see first year is now £450 (robbing so an so's).

The road fund should be free and the cost put on fuel if the government were serious about reducing emissions and not fleecing the public.

caravans should pay £500 a year tax for all the fuel emmisions caused by loads of vehicles stuck behind them

 

[dontknowitall]

I think you left a zero off that?

I personally beleive that one of the biggest causes of pollution on our roads isnt the caravans but cyclists, they never use the cylce paths round here and every morning you pass the same people with cues of traffic behind them revving their engines to get buy, they also cauze loads of accidents, I reckon there should be a campaign to make cyclists to pay road tax for all the pollution that they cauze indirectly

I have 4 vans in total, Scudo 185.00 Berlingo 185.00
But best of all are the 2 Mercedes 209 sprinters at only 125.00 for 12 months

Got 2 horses, tax free lol, but need a landy to tow them around, then I make caravanners wait behind me just staring at two hairy backsides for miles and miles, revenge is sweet
