General points
- The information provided by VCA is only a guide. When determining tax on first registration, it is the CO2 figure shown on the registration certificate (V5C) that will determine the amount of tax payable;
- A new car is one that is currently available to buy or lease from a dealer and has not been previously registered;
- Model definitions are taken from the EC Type Approval documentation, so may differ slightly from final commercial descriptions that include trim levels;
- ‘Type Approval’ is the confirmation that the vehicle met a number of European environmental and safety standards.
