Should I get a newer Toyota for tax reasons?

What is the road tax on a 2008 1.4 petrol Toyota Corolla Verso? I have a 2006 and it's very expensive for the 3,000km the car does a year.

Am I paying the right tax on my Toyota Auris?

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
