How much will it be to tax a 2017 BMW 730d diesel on the new system?

Thank you

We ordered a new car before the 2021 budget and paid a deposit. Even though the car won't be delivered until January 2021, I presume the new VRT rates will not change the price we agreed with the dealer?

Hi,

I’m looking to buy a Toyota Hilux Active Double Cab pickup, a 3.0-litre automatic from Northern Ireland for £15,000. Would it benefit me to register it in Ireland before Jan 2021? Also, I’m using it for my business. How much will motor tax cost annually? I do not know what the NOx emissions are or where to obtain them.

What will the VRT be on a car with 109g/km of CO2 in 2021? At the moment it is 16 per cent of OMSP.

Did motor tax on commercial vechicals go up in the budget?

Hi there,

Purchased “new” tyres only to discover that they were actually manufactured in 2018 and have been told that this is perfectly legal. I wonder how many people realise this. Find this rather troubling to think that a product can sit for two years if not more and still be described as new when it has been stored for a period of time.

Surely there is deterioration in the product as a result of the passage of time?

What is the VRT rate for a 211 BMW X3 xLine xDrive20d? Let's say if I put in a factory order now and the car arrives in the middle of January, will I be charged under the new VRT rate?

A car with 109g/km of CO2 emissions: what is that on the new system?

Thanks

Can you tell me, if the battery is low on a journey can it be charged by the engine?

What is the formula for calculating the CO2 emissions uplifted to WLTP levels?

Thanks
