Newbie hello and quick question

[Saharasole]

Just thought I should say hello, having seen my first beat in 2001 it has taken 10 years but I have finally managed to buy one. I am already in debt to this site for so much useful information but I still have one unanswered question.

How much is the car tax on a beat?

DVLA are somewhat undecided as although the car is a 1991, it was registered as a 2001 import. I can therefore choose to be taxed by engine size or by emmissions. However although a figure of 100ppm HC is given on the engine cover, I can't seem to find an emission figure relating to the DVLA accepted g/km.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Many thanks and donation given

I doult very much you will find a CO2 figure for a beat, as they will never have been officially tested as production was finished way before the regulations came in, in 2001.

Thanks for your replies, had heard different rumours but happy to pay £130 a year for the smiles alone.
