Checked the description and it doesn't when when the car was registered. But if I was going on the plate then I would say it was in the higher tax band. Call the seller to find out.

What do you make of the car looks a good clean example, she is the 2nd owner had it since July 08, (waiting for reply about tax)

If its as described what would you pay for this car?

Cheers

If you are spending that much money isn't it worth paying the extra tax mate. I know you feel sick and so do I paying the amount that I do.

Ideally I would like a 55 plate but there seem quite rare, I guess as you say just pay the £450 once a year and get on with it

What's it really worth? I've got a max of 9.5/10k

I tried to get a 55 plate for lower tax but gave up in the end. Got a 56 at a good price and it's a minter. Blow the £445 tax. Lol

If he has just robbed the ad from a guy on here then you need to start asking alot of questions. As far as I can tell it seems to be worth the asking price but we need more detailed information such as paperwork, servicing etc.

Mine's gone offline now so I don't know if you can see it, but I can email you the details if you're interested. Similar story - longer commute, less money, must sell

Note it is a 06 plate.If it was registered between March 1st and March 23rd 2006 it will be on the lower fax rate. If it was registered after March 23rd it cops the higher tax.
