Thanks

Hi,
I have a 2009 Toyota Auris. I have to pay €160 per quarter. That seems way too high a tax to be paying for a 1.4 2009 Auris? I'd really appreciate it if you could shed some light on this for me.
Many thanks,
Nicola Dee
Hi,
I wonder if you can shed some light on this for me. So I have a Ford Transit crew cab and I have had to get it insured as a private vehicle with social domestic and pleasure cover. I have had to take it for a test as a commercial vehicle, it has a 2,198cc engine with emissions of 197g/km. I have gone to tax the vehicle and been charged €1,200, which is the CO2 emission rate, but according to your information given, if it’s a commercial vehicle being taxed privately the charge reverts back to the engine size, which is as mentioned above 2,198cc and a charge of €958 should have been implemented. Is your information correct and do Revenue owe me the difference?
Thanks for taking the time to read this,
