New tax system - does the premium price rate include extras?
Could you tell me if the new premium rate car tax in 2017 [above £40,000] is basic list price or the cost with added extras?

It has now been confirmed that it is price plus added extras, so you can't, for example, get a car listed at £39k then load it up with £20k's worth of extras and then escape the £310 luxury tax loading for cars over £40,000.
