Very sensible AS, so it will never happen.
Also makes a level playing field, thats not on, the manufactured public enemy number one won't be 'punished' for their 'wrong' choices... 4x4 chelsea tractors previously, all high VED cars currently, soon to be all Diesels (the ones people were encouraged to buy five minutes ago) judging by recent propaganda.
The only fly in the ointment with 4 is that those with big/extra fuel tanks (and carry a few jerries) can, as foreign lorries do now, drive for near on 1500 miles on the cheaper fuel they brought in, enough to get back with in some cases....but i agree with you in principle.
By the way, VED may be the name for it, but its still just another tax, on the money they, the govt of the day, have already taken from us before we even saw it, VED doesn't sound and isn't any friendlier to the cuddly polar bears than road tax.
