Not to start an argument about politics as they're both as bad as each other, and the current tory government really can't be any worse than labour, but the conservatives started the ball rolling with that stupid petrol tax/duty 'scale' thing in the early 90's, abolished in 2000. It's painful putting it in now (petrol ), especially when they're bullshitting saying they have no frigging money. "C20 LET bang"

No point in moaning about it, weve been moaning about it for too long, and where has it got us?? If your car is too uneconomical, just get a fkin diesel... or like me, just be stupid and burn and waste money getting from A-B needlessly, albeit in luxury! And if a diesel with 40mpg+ around town and 60mpg+ on motorways is too expensive, I think that's telling you something about your finances and car ownership viability! Lets just pay the price and get on with life!! For once Matty, you're talking sense lol Cars are becoming more and more expensive to run and its not going to get much cheaper, if at all.
