Motor Vehicle (Duties and Licences) Bill 2003: Second Stage.
A total of 60% of the national car fleet is made up of cars under 1,400 cc. Therefore, the annual extra costs for most motorists will be between €15 and €30, that is, between 29 cent and 58 cent weekly, or, to put it another way, between 4.1 cent and 8.2 cent a day. For the remaining cars, the increases will range from €32 for cars not exceeding 1,500 cc up to €137 for cars over 3,001 cc. Less than 0.5% of the cars are in the 3,001 cc plus category.
