Hi All

Can anyone with a Bora TDI 130 or 150 (Y reg or later) tell me how much tax you pay? According to all the reviews, they both have emissions low enough to qualify for car tax of £110 per year, but I've heard people mention £140. Can somebody confirm either way?

Thanks

Andy

the 130/150 were introduced after 2001 which is when the emissions based taxing came into play. i should imagine both will qualify for the £110 yearly tax :beerchug:

Aye that sounds about right.

I was gutted to find that if my car was registered 6 months later, the tax would be against the co2 emmissions and as such would have been £110. So as mine is before that and is based on the engine size... its full whack of £190!!! :aargh4::mad:

Thanks for your replies guys, but is there anyone who actually owns/drives one of these (the right age) who can confirm?

Thanks.

My pd130 fabia is only £115 a year too. I wonder what it's "actual" CO2 rating is now that I've deleted the EGR and got no cat? I'm in no rush to find out either.....
