How many cars do you have? I've got a toyota hiace, hilux, saxo vtr, metro x 3, vectra 3.0 cdti and a golf. I'm being told off by the wife for having too much! I don't think I have enough!

As long as there is space, there's space to fill!

Although multiple cars make paying road tax a realisation that you can only actually drive 1 at a time and the driver should be taxed and not the vehicles.

There was talk of adding 13p to a ltr of petrol for the budget and binning the car tax altogether, would've
worked for me, 8k miles a year between 2 cars would've meant £60 (£110 Tax) for my Brabus Roadster and £71 (£205 Tax)
for the MGZR 120+

well I don't know what counts as a car, but if we only count cars that will drive again then I have a morris minor, 5x a-series metro's, a metro gti, a rover 75, a mini and a motorbike, and I don't have any more room unfortunately

Can't count cars your not going to drive because I buy cars and break them lol.. I wouldn't mind paying a little more on fuel but I bet it was scrapped because all the posh folk drive big cars so they will pay more tax than people with small cars.. and we know how mp's feel about taxing the rich!
