Wish I spoke to the same chap :s The two people I have spoken to have been complete numpties.

Does your V5 show a CO2 figure and I am assuming your Reg date is pre 2000 and your first UK reg is post 2001?

If thats the case then I need to sort out my reg documents before I get robbed.

Ah never mind:

If your car was first registered in the UK after 24th March 2006 and it's under 10 years of age when it was first registered in the UK then it should require and ESVA which will mean that you will pay VED based on emissions at the SVA test, probably Band G, which will cost £400pa and again the taxation class will be Petrol Car
Thats the category I fall into.. damn it

Yes....i think this assumes that the car was over 10 years old when it was imported.

If your car was an import registered before March 2006 then you probably got away with a PLG taxation and only pay £185....you are lucky.

If this came from MLR then there will be no truth in it at all
