different tax prices for the same engine?
hi all im searching for a caddy. im down to 2.
there both 1.9 tdi c20 (apparently)
why is one £77 tax per half year and the other is £122
why is that and is there a better model between the 2 (apart from cost)?

Re: different tax prices for the same engine?
The cheaper one sounds like an eco4 model.
Means the tax bracket for it is cheaper.
What years are they both?

Re: different tax prices for the same engine?
the cheaper tax is a 56 plate and the more expensive one is a 57 plate which doesnt make sense to me.

Re: different tax prices for the same engine?

Re: different tax prices for the same engine?
As stated above, the euro4 was only given cheap tax for a certain period.
The cheap tax then changed to euro5 engined vans registered after 01/01/09 onwards. I would have thought a 1.6 should fall into this category

Does that mean that some don't meet euro4 regulations then? Mines a 54 reg and costs £220 a year. The stupid thing is I also have a 56 reg 2.5tdi crafter and that's only £135 a year!

Re: different tax prices for the same engine?
wow that's harsh. still rather a t5 then a range rover anyway.
why is it so much? it cant be emissions as the 2.5 is not that bad for emissions compared to other 2.5 tdi's on the market. our old t4 2.5 tdi was much cheaper.

Re: different tax prices for the same engine?
I had an 05 and that was £210 a year while others paid £135 there is no logical explanation behing the euro 4 labelling
