hi just to let you know the discounts on road tax are now more than talk.

this morning hubby got his discounted road tax for our 4x4 truck.

discounted at 20%.

still high but 20% is better than nothing!

you take your paperwork and i think it was for being a good driver!

the notice in the office is all in turkish. his friend who did his truck last week didn't get it, so he was a little p'd off and he is cypriot.

hubby was suprised!

There was an article in one of the papers a few weeks ago about how the government want to encourage safer driving and they are offering discounts on your road tax if you have no driving offences on record.

I will see if I can dig out the article and post the basics of it here.

I got my road tax from the Magusa office and got 10% for having no traffic offences for the last year. Still expensive, it more than doubled from last year. Next year I qualify for 20% if I remaim offence free and another 15% because my car will be over 5 year old. We were in and out within 5 minutes it was painless.
