The Road Tax for a Honda Jazz I-Shift is currently £120 reducing to £90 next year. A few months ago in your column you indicated that you thought the Road Tax for the Honda Jazz I-Shift might be re-classified for next year. Do you have any further information regarding this re-classification?

That's what Honda told me and everyone else, both at the pre-launch and at the launch. Then the Jazz failed to match its promised emissions and they told me they would re-test it before the cars actually went on sale. But they didn't.

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
