RFL for new land rover
Just been on LR web site looking at approved vehicles and they all have a figure of £490 RFL, is this correct, thought they were all £200 ish or am I just out of touch.

That's what I thought, but on approved vehicles, a hi cap and a hard top 90 are both £490 and they are already registered, maybe a few dealers trying it on..........

The Land Rover approved used site is often wrong. My 110 XS SW said £490, but it was actually registered as a commercial vehicle due to having heavy-duty suspension and being able to carry 1 tonne.

To be certain, you can check when tax is due and the cost of a new disk on the dvla website. Mine was £220.

Anything with a 2.2 is £220 or so not the 490. Land rover site is wrong.

Correct,, a lot of the used car listing site's, automate the details etc from a database, so quite a few errors come up,,

Best one is the Defender "Airbag" as standard equipment !! California F1, 75th 110 "Kermit", 50th Ann V8, 90 V8 Hybrid, 55 Series 1

Big Cry The window tax was a significant social, cultural, and architectural force in the kingdoms of England, Scotland and then Great Britain during the 18th and 19th centuries. Some houses from the period can be seen to have bricked-up window-spaces (ready to be glazed at a later date), as a result of the tax.

Anyone got any mortar and bricks going spare? Laughing
