Does BMW know something about 2013 VRT rates?
I've just seen the 2013 price list on BMW's website. In the last few days, BMW has changed the VRT rates on its car configurator from the current rates, to what I presume must be the new anticipated rates. Band A and B appear split and have risen a lot. Prices have obviously risen as a result. Does BMW have information nobody else has or is it just taking a chance based on rumours from the Department of Finance? Do you have any knowledge of this?
