If you buy a B9 from April 2017 onwards then the CO2 is irrelevant after the first year - since from year 2 emissions will have no effect on Road Tax which will be £140 whether the emissions are 1g/km or 1,000g/km (as announced in the post 2015 election Budget statement).

There's a line hiding at the bottom of your image. That must make it £450 per year?

Unfortunately it is nothing to do with tax but our companies pledge to reduce our carbon footprint. And I have the highest by a long long way!!!

But that's because of value not emissions - ANY car over £40k will be charged that from years 2 to 5 whether it emits 1g/km or 1,000g/km - so even a £40,000 will pay the value based surcharge (but a £39,999 won't).

So what I said is 100% correct, emissions are irrelevant after year 1 on new cars from April 2017.

Change job - any company that gives in to the "mad Greens" deserves to go broke IMHO.
