Classic car tax to rocket in march anyone know about it

[Focustard]

Was told a rumor today that tax on classic cars 18 years and over will change 1st march minimum of 450 to a max of a grand done on emmisions.
Anyone know any truth in this!!!!!!!
Apparently was advertised in classic car mags this month!!!!!
What affect will this have on an escos????
Any information greatly appreciated!
Surely they can't bring something like this in!

If they do do this , I'll be driving my car without any tax on it, I don't park it anywhere so I won't get clamped, so even if I get a fine a couple times a year from police for no tax it will still be cheaper than taxing it for the year,

surely cannot be right as most classics are hardly used.

Sensible and cossies are two words that just don't go together

[Cossie col]

had a look on the net and nothing out there about itif its on emissions it will be the highest rate then

[cosmo]

Looks like I'm going to have to tax mine in February then

[stinky]

My car is 18 years old in 2 weeks, will mine qualify for classic car tax

How much is it ATM

[BUSYBOY]

Fingers crossed this is all just hear say then

[TREVCOS]

Mine back on SORN for another year then.

I'm not sure about this. There's been a lot of scaremongering for PF etc. If it was to be based on emissions then theres going to bee a lot of bolt on cats and aftermarket ECU's being bought.
