Do automatic cars not fall under the higher tax rate because of an increase in emissions? I think that's the reason because my CDT Auto is also £255.

Looks a nice example.
The tax difference will likely be because the car in the post is manual, and yours are autos?

I think that's what happened, something of the sort anyway

Perhaps the difference is between auto vs manual??

Best colour and well presented advert, if it said clutch and slave done it would be sold by now. Looks really well presented.

Yes it is. Auto cars are less efficient than manual. Higher emisions i am afraid.

I have asked the seller but no evidence of clutch being done.

So basically, it's a 95,000 mile CDT, with NO service history, needs a bumper painting and hasn't had the clutch replaced then!

Better cars with proper histories are out there folks!
