Should owners of 4X4 vehicles that genuinely need them pay more for road tax.?

Question:
People that live in the country and not just for the 'school run'. Its to protect their children in an accident they say. In the town, they sit in traffic jams, rarely go through a puddle. Most of them never ever use the 4 wheeldrive facility, I doubt they would know how to either.

Answers:

If a gofl ball uses pimples to reduce friction why don't they put pimples on semi trailers?

No one should pay more road tax than anyone else,this is just another way of getting more tax out of the motorist.
I agree with everything you say, maybe we should tax mp every time they tell lies!

Can some1 park a 7.5 ton HGV overnight in a residential st or does it have to be where operators license is?

Yes, but who would define "genuine need"? That would be government ministers then. Hmmm, I wonder how many of them drive 4x4s and would say they "genuinely need" to do so?!

Do you know where I can find....?

Just because you live in the country doesn't mean you need a 4x4. Certainly not a large one.

Which a car is really good on gas?

They shouldn't pay more tax whether they "need" a 4X4 or not, it's their choice and shouldn't concern anyone else.
They are no more harmful to the roads than any other vehicle.

When new cars go on sale, how many months do they come out before the year that they are for?

Sounds like discrimination to me. Singling out a small group to pay extra taxes for no good reason.
What difference does it make? Maybe people with 2X4 should pay the extra tax. See how stupid that sounds. A tax to use the roads , is just that, a tax to use the roads.
I say base the tax on the number of axles that you have, either driven or not.

What should i buy? sports car or 4x4 ?

If the vehicle is harder on the road system, and the ecosystem, it should be taxed higher.
Road repair is costly. And the government NEEDS to exercise an eco-repair system now!!

What do all those letters from engine specifications mean? for example. : CDI, SDI, TDI, TSDI... etc.?

Well how about exempting the basic Land Rover from the highest tax band? People who genuinely need a 4x4 aren't going to be bothered by lack of air conditioning, no 10 disc CD changer, no on-board TV, lack of leather seats etc.

What should i use to get bug the bug guts off my car?

Its a simple matter of supply and demand, like most things in the west. If you want one buy it,it just costs a bit more to run it! The next new car fad will come along and everyone will want that sort of car and the government will tax that item because it will raise more money (i remember when diesel was cheaper than petrol - everyone uses diesel now so it costs more). If you don't want to pay extra 4x4 tax don't buy one, simple!

No. But for now they have a way around the issue - buy one first registered before 23rd March 2006, as CO2 emissions band G for tax purposes does not apply to cars first registered before that date.
