    What's the effect of the new car tax rules and when do they come into effect.

    In short, do I save money or what.

    The BBC normally do a budget calculator, but I can't find it this year.

    Under the road tax changes, which take effect on Thursday, Mr Brown said 50% of cars would have their duty cut or frozen.

    There will be a zero rate for a "small number of cars with the very lowest carbon emissions" and then rates of £40, £100, £125, £150, £190 up to £210 for the "most-polluting" cars.

    Oh, that's happened again, has it.

    If I have time, I'll read the Sun tomorrow and get a proper gist of things.

    Oh and for those worried, my wee cars are VED group C so a £5 reduction, but I don't know when it starts.

    This works it out for you.

    Are you mad.

    That .pdf hasn't even been edited by someone to show me what bits I absolutely have to read (in green) and what bits I should read (in yellow).
