Silver paint tax
 
If I had the power to do so I would introduce a new law requiring all silver painted vehicles to be charged an additional £250 per year road tax.

This would encourage new car buyers to actually choose a colour when specifying their new car.

Drivers with a pre-existing silver coloured car could pay to have it re-sprayed a tax free colour. This would create jobs and boost the economy.

You should try owning a dissapointing grey car, silver is like monogram in comparison.

I know what you mean and I agree to a degree, however I really like a mk2 ZT in silver!!

I think XPower grey is sort of alright. The likes of silver or black is more a choice of a purchaser with no imagination.

MGR did offer a massive choice of colour schemes to those that did have imagination. ;)

We should tax any car with a high vis stripe and blue lettering, ones with yellow illuminated badges and any NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- in an Audi...
