£400 raod tax coming in might be the reason.

Fair point, but I'd assume you could get slightly more than £600 for it nonetheless.

according to the DVLA website, the tax for a C5 is going to be £245 not £400

Provided it was registered prior to 23rd March 2006, I see even for older (pre 2001) cars its going up to £205
