what yr is van, when was it registered ?
mine was registered after 01 2005 so it is fitted with a euro 4 engine which makes the tax only £120.

all i know is the emissions are different when i asked in renault on a service.
why my tax was cheaper on this van 05 than my old 03 trafic.

Is it a 4x4 ? The rates on a 2004 car are based on emissions bands, but £215 isn't one of the rates? Closest is £210 and only a 4x4 Kangoo would attract that rate.
Whats up with you lot, I sold my van and bought a Trebant pick up. Absolutely brilliant,only holds 8 litres of juice, does 120mpg and I get a cheque back from DVLC every month for driving it! The downside is it can only be loaded with 1 concrete block and if I'me working more than 2 miles away I set off the day before but Hey Ho!

What do you mean but £215 isn't one of the rates? i have been to the dvla office and i tried this http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/road-tax/
Yep, 'tis £215 from April 1st. Goes up a whole fiver.
You must have the auto then? edit: That's not listed on the link from the official site, but it is on the link from the Parkers site which appears to be superior. The official site still just shows the existing rates which effectively no longer apply if you're renewing for April.

Alternative idea
Make petrol free of charge,
Then everyone goes out driving as often as they can,
Cars wear out faster, massive traffic jams force people to use the trains.
Maybe after a few weeks or months using a car becomes so terrible the majority of people stop driving for good.

Mine was £170 when I taxed it late last year... Amazingly, I was grateful! 
Many ordinary cars out there attract £200+ tax. £0 tax is a privilege for the rich. I priced up the £0 VED eco Ford Fiesta and once you have such frivolities as doors and seats you're looking at the thick end of £17k. For a Ford Fiesta diesel. A £17K Fiesta is a luxury, no matter how unluxurious it is.
That's the problem... Lorries are only cheap as long as diesel is cheap. If we put major tax breaks on bright-pink carriages pulled by elephants, you can bet that 20 years from now most of our food would be delivered by such contraptions.
Diesel lorries are not so wonderful we must keep them running at all costs. We need something to replace either the diesel part or the lorry part, or both.
It's time to move on to the next thing. We just need to invent it.
