Re: Definition of “List Price” for Luxury Car Tax
It will almost certainly be a self assessment system with the onus falling on the dealer to report to the various authorities.

Re: Definition of “List Price” for Luxury Car Tax
@thetoplaird - the £40k "luxury car tax" was brought in some years ago and it looked a low threshold back then, so a few years on and it could be argued why it has not budged :? - and then again we all know the reason why :cry: Fiscal drag. The favourite toy of any government. Thresholds ...

Re: 2022 Euro Road Trip [Ask Me Anything]
I’m fortunate to live in France. I have a Carte de Sejour (French residency) and my Yorkie has a French pet passport. Post Brexit travel through the tunnel is easy. Flash the Carte de Sejour and no passport stamps or questions. Straight through.

Re: A few questions on possible :- XC40 Plus B4 AWD mild hybrid

I’ve just finished a nearly 600-mile drive from Inverness. Trip computer says 11 hours driving time (...

Re: Can a tyre be repaired after using sealant?
I add a spacesaver as an option to every car I buy. Far better than a can of glorified shaving foam.

Re: Items gone from new models
They’ve removed the Oxide Red leather from the options list. I appreciate it won’t be to everyone’s taste but I love it in my car.

Re: Thought I was doomed
This happened to me last week. I started the car and the a/c blew out warm air. I drove to the other side of the village. Stopped the car, got out, locked it, unlocked it, got back in and restarted the engine. The a/c worked perfectly then. The car thermometer was reading 42 when I got in - I'm in t...

Re: Depreciation? What depreciation?
September 2020 70 plate Inscription Pro with quite a few extras. 9,000 miles on the clock. We Buy Any Car offered £30,600. It's certainly not consistent. My RDesign, absolutely no extras, same 9,000 mileage but a year older has a 31,700 price offered. Perhaps it the engine, mines an AWD T4 . I'm ev...
