    VED costs

    Just taxed my car, ?360 for 12 months.

    I can't find this rate in any of the VED tables. Is this what everyone else pays? (Engine is a 3.0 Alfa V6 CF2 1998)

    Because your car is not fully emissions tested then the tax rates revert to the old pre 2001 tax rates.

    Apologies for adding salt to this wound.
    DVLA have just sent me my classic logbook. Massive error on there part. Going on the registration and not on the date of construction.

    Not impossible. A fair few years ago I had gone to Monaco for the GP. I can remember seeing a AC Cobra on hand controls and a wheel chair rack on the boot lid.
