Cheers Tom, you right my 5 dr hatch was dear to tax too! Not being owning too many petrol cars in recent years!

y reg is the funny tax rules so could get expensive. Still £400 with a hard top is probably a very good buy.

Hi Chris, my china w plate Hdi estate was registered feb 2000 was £226 for a year and my moonstone 5 door Hdi registered oct 2000 was half the price just like my moonstone y plate estate so y plate should be cheaper tax too!

That's not quite right I'm afraid!

Tax changed from engine size to emmisions based at Y reg (March 1st 2001).

After this diesels are usually cheaper because of their low CO2 (regardless of the other crap they chuck out ) but petrols often become more expensive because they produce tonnes of CO2. I think the Y reg on cabbies will be in the £285 tax band but I'm not 100% on that.
