Tax Prices
 

When I was looking at getting a A8 I was informed about the little tax price increase for 2 months and was aiming for a A8 outside of the two months but failed and got one with the stupid tax price.

I was wondering if anyone has questioned the 2 month price increase with DVLA or know of a reason why?

The engine was tweaked for the new tax bands and didn't quite make it in time, from 231g/km to 224.
