This adds to the perverse incentive not to replace older diesels: my Saab, with its 2 litre diesel smoke generator is £35/year
Our 1.2 petrol corsa is the better part of £200 **and** goes up.
I'm quite curious to see how it'll stack up against EVs once they start having to pay VED in 2025 (though I suspect they'll defer it)
