Looks like the Chancellor slipped in a sly increase to the Road Fund Licence in the budget, I dont recall it being mentioned on the main news on the day.
So presumably was in the 'small print' I only found out today when I went to the local PO to re tax my Townmate T80. Although the renewal form stated it was £16 the postie said it it was now £17 as it was increased in the budget. So a sly move on the part of the government. Other classes of vehicle will naturally have increased. For bikes up to 150cc is now £16; 151-400 £37; 401-600 £57; over 600 & sidecars/threewheelers over 150cc £78.
