Emissions in grams per kilometer for 2002 Roadsport SV with K-series 1.6 litre engine

[wpqs]

Does anyone know where I can get an official copy of the emissions in grams per kilometer for 2002 Roadsport SV with K-series 1.6 litre engine?

I recently registered my car in Malta and discovered the new log book stated the emissions as 251 g/Km. It's not clear where they got this figure from, but it seem high. Interestingly anything less than 250 g/Km would cost only EUR 600 per year for road tax rather than EUR 1200.

According to Wikipedia the CO2 emissions figure for a 1999 - 2005 Rover 216 is 164 g/km, however if it was not tested in a Caterham install it might by default be "251 or over".  You could try to argue your case though.

I'd just be grateful they registered it tbh.

A UK car has no co2 figure as it wasn't tested. If there was an equivalent EU version to yours back then that's what someone has used I expect. Or as said above they couldn't find anything recorded and went worse case which is still better than a 'no you cant register that'.
