A few surprises here, namely that PHEVs will pay a lower rate of RUCs, I was under the impression there would be a rebate scheme for petrol purchased.

No revisions to the weight brackets, which I imagine will be necessary before all vehicles eventually go to RUCs.

    Wouldn’t you run into issues if you went to sell it though? I guess if you were planning to run it into the ground it wouldn’t matter

      I guess you change the odometer less than you use it, so it looks like you’ve only done 1,000km in the last year when actually you’ve done 10,000?

      I wonder if the new speed cameras that record your number plate could be used to check for odo changes? Like if they know you drove through that 10km (or whatever) zone twice a day every day, they would (or at least could) know that you’ve driven 5,000km over the 250 working days so they could tag you for closer inspection or something?
