Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just a thought. Like many, my car is put away before winter and resurfaces when Spring is upon us. Being careful with my hard earned credit, I Sorn for this period and re tax April/May time. There are some massive road fund license tax hikes imminent from 1st April - I’ve re taxed a bit early, still at current rates. Not sure what the car will cost to tax next month but surely this might be one of my smarter moves.. Just thought I’d share with my fellow Porsche comrades

POST 4Original post

Its up £5 from £190 to £195 and the expensive car supplement is up from £410 to £425

POST 5Original post

All cars are up but mine is going from £600 to £620. So to guess I would say a £20 across the board rise PA on petrol cars under 5 years old but over £40k EV cars was £10, now will be £195 these will also have the £420 added for being over £40k. what is annoying is between March 2001 and April 2017 a high co2 car will be £735. But a 2018 v12 Lambo hi co2 car will be £195 lol that's madness. I think all other cars are just up a fiver PA.

POST 7Original post

Just re-taxed our EV even though it had 5 months still to go, so now have 12 months on zero rate :

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

If one was really clever. Sorn, wait 4 days and re tax.. The info out there regarding new car rates is reasonably straight forward, albeit eye watering in lots of cases. Just can’t seem to nail down the increases for cars which are already registered along with the age brackets??

Just can’t seem to nail down the increases for cars which are already registered along with the age brackets?? If you have an EV and want to get an extra year of no VED, then just re-tax. No need to SORN first. You can do the same with all cars, but you may well lose the month you are in so negate any saving.

True but you would have paid a ~£2k first year tax on a 2017+ supercar and also the premium for cars costing over £40k for the next 5 years which I think was ~ £400 PA at the time.

POST 12Original post

My 2017 911 is currently something like £16 per month. Not worth putting on SORN. Not sure it will go up a bit.

POST 13Original post

Just watch about doing a sorn short term, if you do you have to wait a full 5 working days before you can re tax or go to PO and do it .
