Just paid £245 to tax the gti

Then it got me thinking....(which is dangerous lol)

The goverment arent trying to price us off the road to save the world like they think they are its all about money. If they wanted us to use our cars less then they would LOWER the prices of public transport like buses, trains etc and make them a more comfortbale place to be in rather than RAISING the price of tax and petrol etc.

Bloody money grabbing bastards  For some people its not really necessary to get a bus or train into work but instead easier to travel by car so raising the prices of everything doesnt help them. And yet they contines to drive around in the big pertrol busting rr, maybachs lol and private copters

It works out cheaper for me to run a car, with tax, high fuel bill, tear and wear on tires and other parts then it would for me to take a train to work. Plus the car is a tad quicker...

Plus the whole transportation thing is a sham in London. I never understood what was wrong for paying 40-50p for a child fare and if the child was 3miles+ from school then he/she would get a free term off travel. Instead we now have higher fares to compensate the free travel, more twits using and ruining the buses. Then they introduced the oyster saying it will stay at £1 and never increase... cough *b0ll0x* cough, it has gone up twice. Now borris has introduced these hire bikes... we see him using them now, but I give it till it snows and he will be in a car.

My 53plate tdi 130 = £115

£245.00 a year, not too bad in a way really.

[dubber36]

My Mk6 GT TDI is £90 a year, my Passat V6 TDI is £245 and my Mk2 GTI is £210. That costs me £545 per year.

Now all 3 cars together do less than 25,000 miles per year. Mum and Dads neighbour does over 60,000 miles a year in his Golf Blue Motion and pays just £35. Who do you reckon produces the most carbon dioxides in a year?

I reckon we should pay our road tax on the fuel we use,(some would say we already do), then display an insurance disc on our windscreens.

I'm all for less windscreen clutter
