Vehicle road tax on Defenders

BuzzLand · Jul 3, 2009

Just dropped a bollock on the lannie I'm buying.
It's a 2001 make and It's registered late march so I'll be hit by the max'd up poll tax on wheels law that labour introduced.

Can you claim back the tax as expenses on company tax returns?

Is it possible to change the vehicle to a Light goods vehicles (TC39)?
Thus avoiding the £450 odd road tax bill each year.

Cheers

Just done some checking and it seems if the defender is a van it's classed as a light goods vehicle and not as a private then the price will be lower.

Here's the tax costs from April 2010;

They have dropped the proposal to back date older vehicles (pre March 06) into the higher band that didn't exist when they were first registered.
