No I haven't been hit with that and never will be. As mine was registered after 1st March then I come under the cheaper tax for some reason...something to do with emissions being the basis?! So my car tax is only £180 for 12 months.

Seems strange for the difference though!

£205 is crazy to be fair, I think I paid £112.75 for mine but that was just for 6 months.
It just keeps going up & up

Car tax went up again at the end of April though, you probably just beat the price increase
