Vehicle tax changes

[Niall]

And how many of the UKs drivers are on forums? a very very small amount i would imagine!
Its barely any different in cost, you pay monthly if you wish so no need to loose out on money if you sell the car mid way through tax, its easier on the pocket because you pay monthly, payments are automatically taken so haven't got to remember to tax the car at the end of the year and you can't get a fine for failure to display tax any more. I don't see where the issue is!

Only bad point is you will need to tax the vehicle immediately if you buy one but again, i don't see it being too bigger issue as now there is no disc to send to a registered address, you just do it online when you get the car...just like you might when transferring your insurance.
