See link below;

Only 8 years to go for me then :mad:

Just don't want some Labour t**t coming along and cancelling it like they did the 25 year one in 1997. :x :x

I guess that is better than a kick in the teeth!

Just 14 years for me to 'save' £225pa,wonder if the touring will last that long? :D

Be better if VED was based on the owner's age,free VED for pensioners! :D

Looking at the C&SC piece it appears to have been written last year as the earliest blog comments relate to 52 weeks ago.

I may be mistaken but I think that is old news based on last year's budget.
