Frances Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 as we are approaching road closure season whereby any club can get roads closed for the private use of their members maybe the site could include a list of all currently agreed closures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
When Skies Are Grey Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 as we are approaching road closure season whereby any club can get roads closed for the private use of their members maybe the site could include a list of all currently agreed closures Its not quite that simple...as anyone trying to get closure orders from the DoT will attest to....however its not a bad idea and I wonder if it will include sports events/road racing/cycling etc....

Gags Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Yes, indeed have you seen the price of road tax these days?? Totally out of proportion. Standard 1.4-1.8 engine is now £100 per year!!! It is only £110 per year for cars up to 1549cc -see the proof: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/Ownin...cle/DG_10012524 And for that you get hundreds of miles of decent motorway, proper A roads, dual carriageways etc etc not 500 odd miles of country lanes and a racetrack!!!

grant Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Are, so its you who keeps "bumping into a set of roadworks / cones / temporary traffic lights / shitey roundabouts" this could be why the road tax is so dear, could I suggest an eye test?

Tugger Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Mine was £220 I think. And I have to drive about a billion fecking miles out of my way to avoid road works that have been undertaken so that Dandara can make a profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
