You're road tax has just lept, I'm afraid.

New rules applying to post-2001 registered cars mean that if it produced more than 185g/km CO2, you get wacked for a ?25 per year increase in road tax. The official listing for the S14 is 233g/km....

Those registered pre-2001 get a ?5 increase.

The rules are:

Band A Up to 100 : reduced to ?0 to pay
Band B 101 to 120 : reduced by ?35
Band C 121 - 150 : reduced by ?5
Band D 151 - 165 : unchanged
Band E 166 - 185 : unchanged
Band F Over 185 : increased by ?25

All in CO2 g/km..

Going to need to get verification on the specifics applying to imports, as registered is not quite the same as it is for a UK market car...

Should be OK. Checked the V5. The new versions are more detailed about registration. They state a first date of registration (i.e. in Japan) and the date first registered in the UK.

Of course, if you bought a later model (i.e. 2001/2), you're going to get hit.
