The exact annual road tax for any Subaru, from a Forester to a XV, worked out from the reg rather than estimated from the model.
Tax depends on when the car was first registered. A Subaru registered before March 2001 is taxed on engine size; from 2001 to March 2017 it is CO2 bands, where low emission models can cost very little; and from April 2017 onwards most cars pay a flat standard rate, with a surcharge for five years if the list price was over £40,000. The same model can sit in very different bands depending on year and engine, which is why checking the exact car matters.
The exact annual tax for the car you check, its CO2 figure and Euro emissions status, plus the full spec that drives those numbers: engine size, fuel type and power. You also get MOT history, mileage timeline and a market valuation in the same £4.99 report.
How much is road tax on a Subaru Forester?
There is no single figure, even for one model. A Forester registered before April 2017 is taxed on its CO2 band, one registered after pays the flat standard rate, and a higher specification car that cost over £40,000 new pays a surcharge on top. Enter the reg and the report shows the current annual rate for that exact car.
Can I check if a car is taxed?
Tax status changes daily so we focus on what the rate will cost you. For live taxed or SORN status, the DVLA's own vehicle enquiry service is the definitive source.
