By |2022-01-09T19:31:58+00:00January 9th, 2022|Uncategorized|0 Comments

With the sale of new petrol and diesel cars due to end by 2030, the government are having to consider alternative road tax policies. At present, road, tax is calculated on fuel type and emissions.

By |2021-11-21T12:22:18+00:00November 21st, 2021|Uncategorized|0 Comments

What does this all mean?   There are already rules around car modifications that cover things such as how dark window tints can be, adding neon lights or ridiculously loud exhausts. Motorcycles will also be included in these changes. The proposed changes to rules around car modifications intend to
