Used Car Buyers Face £410 Fee Under New Labour Government MeasuresThe Labour government's new measures introduce a £410 fee for some used car buyers, adding to the existing Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) payments. This fee, known as the Expensive Car Supplement (ECS), targets second-hand cars originally priced at over £40,000, making it more expensive to own these vehicles. UK automotive experts warn that buyers face a potential 'trap' when purchasing used cars due to the lack of clarity regarding the original list price, especially considering the inclusion of optional extras in the £40,000 threshold. \This extra charge, initially implemented in 2017, has previously exempted electric vehicles (EVs).
