99GT Exhaust Emissions?

Greetings,

It's been a while since I've posted on here and time have moved on.

Just about to take possesion of a 99GT that I have imported to England from
Florida.

Can anyone point me in the direction of where to find how much CO2 a 99GT
puts out. Reason being, the UK goverment has just increased road tax to an
all time high, based on engine pollution. Therefore if I can prove that the
4.6 V8 is below a certain level of CO2 production I can theroretically pay
less tax.

Cheers guys,

JohnP.

In what measure? grams per distance traveled? Since it's going to be a
value that is basically determined by fuel economy it is going to vary
widely depending upon the type of driving. So there must be a set driving
cycle in the UK to determine the value used for taxation.

Considering the number of older cars on the road, is this measured by
some sort of testing facility or are the older cars simply exempt or on a
fixed rate?

I suppose it could be roughly calculated for the EPA driving cycle,
however I don't think that will be the same as the one used in the UK.
