I think they’ve already started my VED has been going up relentlessly.

My sons 2011 Euro 5 1.6d Golf is £20 annual VED, my wife’s BMW Euro 6 PHEV is £510 annual VED. So VED has clearly got little to do with pollution anymore. [/quote]

Isn't that because that includes the over £40k surcharge for the first 5 years ? so really it's only £165 ish IIRC
