Best tax-busting choices
Peugeot 407 SW 1.6 HDi 110
(2004 to date)
French
firm is known for the strong pace and great economy of its diesels –
and the 110bhp 1.6-litre HDi in the 407 upholds this. It makes the SW
model one of the cleanest estates around, with 140g/km emissions – and
under the new system, the tax bill falls from £120 to £110 a year. As
the cost of a disc for most other estates rises, the car looks
tempting, especially with so many on the market. And if you buy from a
main dealer, the firm’s used approved scheme offers peace of mind.
Used price range: £4,300-£9,700
CO2 emissions: 140g/km
2008 tax band/cost: C/£120
2009 tax band/cost: E/£110
