Still think it should be put onto fuel...
based on 10,000 miles a year, 45mpg, at 1.38 a litre, and £200 a year tax, it would go up to 1.56 a litre.
but most do more miles than that, and use less fuel, and pay less road tax, so I wouldnt see it needing to be more than 10p a litre extra.
It would encourage people to be more eco friendly, and those who use the roads most, causing the most wear and tear, would be the ones paying for it.
not some poor guys with track based cars paying over £200 a year to travel a few hundred miles each year to tracks
