It appears the government site is wrong well there's a surprise, they've made such a mess of vehicle tax rates they themselves can't even get it right. If you use their own tax calculator by entering the reg date, model etc most 2.0ltr vehicles come out in the wrong tax band, quoting a higher annual figure.
Do it by reg and get the c02 emissions then calculate it yourself via the tables and you get the correct rate which is lower. Most 2ltr petrols come out at £260 via the emissions tables do it via date of registration and model etc on the calculator and it'll come out at £325
Checked mine thinking I might qualify because of the age reduction, but missed it by 2 years since mine was first registered in 2003 . Still worth checking, because mistakes can happen with bureaucracy. Oh well......
