Agreed. Don't let the name fool you.

This tax exempt stuff will stop one day, tell me how are they going to maintain their annual budget to repair roads etc when we are all driving "tax free" cars?

They'll continue using council tax the same as they do just now.

You mean they repair roads? Half the roads by me are filled with potholes and have been for the best part of 2 years

Again, "road tax" doesn't pay for the roads but it's gone up on everything that isn't tax free to compensate a grand for the first year on some things?
