The Tax Office, in their wisdom, have now decided that all quad bikes should be taxed as 4 x 4 vehicles and are taxing them accordingly. They also want to backdate the tax to the date of purchase. This obviously means you will pay far more tax for the vehicle. They have sent a letter to your address but, like me, you may have not received the letter. If so, it will be waiting for you at the tax office. You can choose to pay the tax or, if you don't agree with the classification, go to Court.
If you have bought your quad bike from Erko motors then may I suggest you contact Ece Koylu, Advocat, who is married to the owner of Erko Motors, Atinc (pronounced Altinch) who will take your case to Court on your behalf for 120 lira, no fees involved just the costs of Court. If they win this money will be refunded.
They have also said that if you didn't buy a Quad from them they will also help you.
If you have a letter waiting at the tax office then you have one month to reply. May I suggest we all fight this as the costs of 4 x 4 car tax price is very high and, after all, this is not a car. Do you see many people wearing helmets in a car[?]
To all people reading this could you please pass on the information to all your friends who are quad bike owners, they may not read this. Thanks
