Here, they just try and calculate how much they ought to tax a car of your
characteristics and apply a flat annual rate.

I think their decision on which cars tax the most comes down to non-practical
factors, though, but rather they try to take money from people who can pay it.

If you have a four-wheeled peanut from fifty years ago which pollutes as heck
they don t tax you much, because obviously you are poor and you don t have much
to take. If you buy an hyperefficient hybrid they tax your guts out because you
are obviously capable of spending loads of money.
