VED for post 2006 cars is ridiculous. And by 'New' what do actually mean? I bought a 60K miles 2003 Jag for peanuts, more economical than my previous A4 (the advantages of an Aluminium body) and all the toys you could want (always introduced first into premium motors, years ahead of the cheaper motors). Good of the previous owner to run it so carefully for me.

So when the dealers say "VED for the next two years is £30" are they talking nonsense, or is the likelihood the bands already in existence WILL change but only slightly to follow inflation, etc, rather than be revamped?
TLDR; choosing a car in lowest VED bands A-C (£0, £20, £30) is still sensible and won't be trashed by changes coming in?

Buying a really polluting car should be a tad better deal in a few months time

so you will just end up baking it into the on the road price with the dealer and it just becomes another purchase tax?
or have I missed something?

Bangernomics or Classic Or Nutter Barsteward are all reasonable forms of ownership if you do 4000 miles a year.

Insurance+VED cost as much as fuel. Tires, repairs and other stuff is a killer.

If you buy it new right now, it might be £0. If you wait until May and buy it new then, it might be £140.
If you are buying a second hand car, the change in VED will only be the usual annual increase, you won't be put into a new banding.
