Hi Peter,
Well, actually you shouldn’t have to pay motor tax at all. If you yourself are a disabled driver, or the person who drives with you is, you can apply for exemption from motor tax. You just need to get in contact with Revenue and fill in a couple of forms, and they’ll then send you an exemption tax disc.
