showroom tax, i think they call it... i'd hope the dealer would cover that considering the purchase cost.

this is for pre 2008 reg cars...

After 2008 is CO2 based and new 135i is something like 445 euros but older cars with huge engines will still be pricy.

I pay 400 euros insurance for gti so seems reasonable compared to UK market

Yeah my S4 is over €1800 to tax for the year, or €500 every 3 months, we also don't have a SORN system like ye do either.
