Thought it was 8% ? And wasn't there still another "add" on tax for cars and bikes? Thats the Tax on Tax - Special Car Tax , you pay VAT on the original price and the special Car Tax I'm sure Vat started at 5% and has gone up in 2 1/2 % increments - but I may be wrong |

Purchase tax preceded VAT at 25% !!! When we entered the EEC VAT was introduced at 10%. ( yes I used Google lol. ) I recall some thinks we're tax free,wine and cider from memory but beer had vat added and food was vat free so getting beer classed as a food was attempted  but sadly failed,it was cheaper to step outside the pub to eat crisps because vat wasn't added to "take always" there were lots of silliness around lol. |
