Drivers with cars registered between these dates issued £2,605 tax warning

Drivers have been issued a warning as tax rates for fuel run cars have increased.

Motorists will see the amount of vehicle tax they pay increase this financial year after changes came into force on Saturday, April 1. Those with cars registered between March 2001 and April 2017 will have an even higher rate.

As part of Spring budget 2023, Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) will increase by 10.1 per cent in line with the Retail Price Index (RPI) from April 1. While rates can vary, petrol and diesel drivers' standard rate of car tax will increase from £165 to £180.
