Haven’t Paris just voted to charge SUV,s parking there, 4 times the cost of a normal vehicle.
If the lefties get their way, and vehicles are totally eradicated from the roads. Should they not stop to think where the revenue stream will come from, that replaces the loss of tax the Governments receive from the car industry in general.
Like most EVs then.
Oh what? They’re exempt!

The EV is turning out to be a white elephant. Private sales going through the floor, fleet sales high due to tax incentives how long will that last, issues over range and charging during the recent cold spell as mentioned on the BBC News for 'one bullitin only', Hertz off loading 20000 EV's due to high maintenance cost and so it goes on. Until these lentil eating librals get their heads out of the sand we are doomed. And relax...............
While the roses love it, there'll never be enough of it at a price sufficient to replace motor taxes.DJMCUK wrote: ↑Mon Feb 05, 2024 5:28 pmHorse shit.TheTraveller wrote: ↑Mon Feb 05, 2024 8:37 am Let’s see who can attack the motorist most, and what devisive mechanisms can we use.

On the Paris charge, I noted that they are applying it to EVs too, anything over 1.6 ton(ne)s.

Your right - so that is pretty much all EV's isn't it? Can't be many cars, especially EV's under 1.6 tonnes.Neil1911 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 05, 2024 5:55 pmWhile the roses love it, there'll never be enough of it at a price sufficient to replace motor taxes.DJMCUK wrote: ↑Mon Feb 05, 2024 5:28 pmHorse shit.TheTraveller wrote: ↑Mon Feb 05, 2024 8:37 am Let’s see who can attack the motorist most, and what devisive mechanisms can we use.

Ah sorry, was meaning I’ve ordered a GTS, if the Turbo EV had a 20% discount I may have waited (but maybe not).Bluesnose1812 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 05, 2024 8:59 pmDon't worry VAT is charged at the rate on the date of the invoice, not the order.

That'll really put the skids on used EV prices.

Income tax, NI and VAT are the only faxes that matter followed by corporation tax. All the rest raise peanuts and are designed to control peoples bad habits.TheTraveller wrote: ↑Mon Feb 05, 2024 8:37 am Let’s see who can attack the motorist most, and what devisive mechanisms can we use.

I think the suggestion was that VAT would be reduced to 10%. Normally when that happens, miraculously the pre-VAT price soon rises to fill the difference...
