On a very marginally related topic (I.e the cost of car travel)... both myself and my father got our car tax letter through in the last few days...
My father has a 1.2 litre hatchback diesel with a power I’d estimate in the region of 80-90bhp, and it does 69mpg. His car is only a few years old.
I’ve got a 2litre 215bhp rocket (in comparison) which does 0-60 in about 6 seconds, 7 years old and does 46mpg. My tax for the year is £20 less than his....!
Not complaining, just a bit more inconsistency. I fail to see in any way how this can be logical.
