Seven in 10 drivers will pay more tax under new rules

Updated



New vehicle tax regulations, set to be implemented from April 1, will see seven out of 10 drivers paying higher rates.

Recent research by HonestJohn.co.uk has revealed that these new tax rules will particularly affect buyers of new eco-friendly models, many of which are amongst Britain's most popular cars. At the same time, owners of some more-polluting vehicles will benefit from the legislation.
