 Road Tax on nearly new cars - Arctophile
Some while ago the DVLA made changes to the way VED (road tax) works.

The tax no longer follows the vehicle and a refund is made if the car is sold
part way through the year.

The first year is also more expensive than subsequent years.

What happens if you buy, say, a previously registered three month old car?
Is the new tax still at the higher first year rate?

I doubt if the DVLA would charge a pro-rata 9 month / 3 month rate.
