How can I find out the rate of road tax on a car?

Is there anywhere to find out how much road tax is for a second hand nearly new car before l buy? This will influence what l can afford and help me with my search.

We have a tool that will do this for you here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/cheap-road-tax/ Just enter the registration number of the car you are looking at and it will tell you the annual rate as well as the cost if you pay by Direct Debit.
