My car is now in a higher tax bracket than when I ordered it - can I dispute this?
I ordered a new car in January 2022. It was delivered in February 2023 and is now in a higher tax bracket. Can I dispute it?

Unfortunately the vehicle excise duty that your car falls into is determined by the date of registration, not the date it was ordered or the date it was built. This information appears on the V5 document.
