tax is only £125 though :cool:

Oh yes :cool: Always good! I did 6 months this time to break it away from my insurance though as that is still stupid amounts :sad:

Stop moaning and get the angle grinder out you girl

Hmm not such a good idea really :tongue: Not sure how long it would last doing not far off 2000 miles per month lol plus I want to be able to put this car back before I sell it, so if i do change anything it will at most be the wheels and coilovers, keeping the originals so that I can sell it standard :)

the joys of diesel :cool: I got my car tax, mot and insurance all in the same month as well :sad:
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

Hmm Im starting to wonder if theres an issue with mine though, over on the audi forum someone stated getting 53 ish mpg on motorways but on my work run I manage an average of about 43 in a full tank :undecided:

Plus diesel/petrol are getting so expensive now lol

Yea hate having it all in the same month, my MOT is in octover i think it is, tax will now be september, insurance in jan, so broke it up a little :smiley:
