what sort of golf do you reckon costs €2200 to tax?

I'm guessing he's paying commercial tax at the moment

yes but if you read the paragraph he says he considered changing to a car, maybe a diesel golf but the insurance was too much at €1100 and then double that on tax

actually reading it again he never actually said the tax was double the insurance, i have to stop reading post so quick:o

to change to a golf 2l tdi for myself (still in college) it was gonna cost just over 1K a year extra to tax and insure and yes commercial tax which at the time was €288 tax, The fuel saving worked out at €800 per year for personnel weekday driving, (still need a jeep/commercial for certain task but could have borrowed the bosses when needed)
