Cars registered on or after March 1st 2001 are taxed according to their emissions; for cars registered before that date there's one road tax price for engines up to 1549cc and another for over 1550cc.

 

Cars registered after that date have been split into 13 road tax bands from May 2009 based on emissions: cars in band A are greener (and cheaper to tax) than band M, therefore the lower the emissions, the cheaper the car tax. You'll find your car’s emission information on your v5c Registration Certificate - (see right).

 

Cars registered before March 2001 aren't subject to the road tax prices and bands quoted here; this is because there is no accurate emissions data available for these

cars. Instead, road tax for these cars is priced based on engine size:

 

Up to 1549 cc:      £125 annual road tax

1550 cc and over: £190 annual road tax
