petrol prices- gggrrr

It costs £80 to fill our Galaxy up with diesel!
It's getting pathetic - the government seem to be working towards everyone living on benefits coz at this rate i wont be able to affrod to work! Like the way the other day Gordan Brown said they would discuss petrol prices - more like ill say that to keep epeople quiet for day!
Also if they go ahead with the planned tax rises our galaxy will be £300 a year to tax! now i would of thought they would of helped people with people carriers as think of the amount of cars u can take off the raod with school runs and work runs being shared in a 7 seater?!?!

yes but most of these cars are gusslers and therefore polluters- which they dont want. The government want to discourage people driving them. Yes they are used for work runs but how many people have these big cars and they are very rarely full. I know of several people who have Kia sedonas, galaxys and most of the time there are 3 people in them.

we have 4 in ours but we do a lot of picking up and dropping off too hehe

my dad filled his last night, diesel he paid £40 for 31 litres hes got a pajero he calls her his beast lol coz its big lol

makes u laugh though the government moan about people using un-green cars id like to know how thier cars effect it all bet their jags arent eco friendly lol!

Our tax will be £260 next year. we've got a 2ltr Mondeo estate and its a 52 plate, not new, 2nd hand when we bought it and we can't afford to go out and buy a 'new' car that is less polluting.

Thing i want to know is what is this extra money going towards? Is money really going to save the environment? It would be nice to see where it is all going!
