ROAD TAX CHANGES FOR TRIKES

Sadly, it’s not an April Fool, but from

1st April, the prices of road tax for trikes’s gone up. Now for Tax Class 50 (that’s under 450kg), it’s £96 for 12 months, or £52.80 for six months, and for Tax Class 11 (that’s 450kg plus) trikes that’re under 1550cc it’s £170 for 12 months, and £93.50 for six. If they have an engine bigger than 1550cc, it’s now £280 for 12 months, and £154.60 for six.

If you’re sending a tax cheque to the DVLA for a newly-converted trike, make sure you include the right amount otherwise your application’ll be held up.
