what year does the taxation class on a sport change to £475, and why?? Classic owner, but soon to be a Sport.

Not sure on the year, but I assume it's die to the DVLA rules and the CO2 emissions

You lucky lucky lad, there can't be many TDV8's in that tax bracket Obviously one of the very 1st TDV8's to be registered,

the bloke i bought it off said it was a press release car

Knowing how the press treat these motors, i wouldn't of thought that, that was a strong selling point
