My Scorpio - Cosworth V6 24V is the same as the 'S'...biggrin

Enormous Gas Guzzler..!

Whats gets my goat is the amount of people who have bought Nissan Navara's and the like - Claiming the VAT back as a commercial business vehicle (as it can carry over 1 ton). Then use it for pleasure.. they pay reduced road Tax as its classed as a commercial vehicle. With Full Leather, Climate control, SatNav all the works..

If we could just do something about the c£0.16 per mile in fuel taxes we'd be laughing (a round trip to my parents in the Tiv costs me about £60 just in tax yikes )

Mrs B's Fiesta comes in at a whopping £35 so maybe the government aren't so bad after all...

Ouch. Ok - how about we all stop buying new cars!

The range of pre-2001 cars sets the limit of performance at something like a well specced Cerb (or Ferrari F40 if you're feeling so inlcined!), but I think we could live with that. smile

The majority of my cars have been late 80s to early 90s, I'm happy to go along with that.
