The question
I've a 2011 Ford Kuga with back seats; tax is €580 a year; is it because it came from the UK?
Cheers

Hi David,
Nope, not because it comes from the UK, but because it’s the four-wheel-drive version. The extra weight and friction of the four-wheel-drive system pushes the Kuga’s CO2 level up to 159g/km, and that incurs a €570 per annum motor tax charge.
