Despite knowing this outlay prior to purchasing my GiT..............ITS NOT FAIR !!!!
On a slightly positive note, I am getting approx 38mpg currently. My previous Nissank 1.8 Petrol was giving me approx 33mpg on similar daily journey's !
Good 'ol injectors !

PS Obviously, having more fun than in the Nissank too !

I don't think £1.04 a week in highway robbery tax over a deisel is that much to suffer.  :grin:

Kenneth - Yeah baby !

Snoops/Stevie-boy - True, when you put it like that. Though, I would have thought that the GTDieseasel drivers would save more than approx £53 a year on road tax compared to a Petrol? I guess, the rest is made up in insurance, fuel, running costs etc. This is the only time I am envious, but love you all the same  :cool:
