Title: AARGH is there NO escape???
Post by: Danny on 31 July 2008, 23:12:31

as some of you may know, i bought a VERY tidy corsa at a good price, which worked out even less after making profit selling a set of alloys that came with it, its unreal on fuel, the needle barely moved in the 62 miles i've driven it

i then find this.... clicky (http://kineticnorth.com/BBCNews/?NewsGUID=cc5b50b5-bcee-4dc1-b212-6e1040910287)

The only thing that makes sense to me is that the "British" government must hate the british people.  >:( >:(

What to say >:( looks like it might get worse as they look at other small cars, thw whole this is a total c@ck up, time RFL was on petrol and insurance was a sticker in the window, with instant computer details available to the authorities the old arguments for not doing this are long gone.

But the root problem in this country is still just as true .... the fact that we all fell for it, that it was so plausable, is worrying in itself  >:(
