fuel savings
marjan:
Daily drive is now a diesel Focus which is doing 48-52 MPG and I also have the works van so the V6 Shogun only moves on a weekend :D
Mareng:
I bought this for the time being, as the V8 Disco was costing a bit much on the run from Southampton to Manchester every week.
Soon as I am settled in Bolton in a few weeks I'll be on the hunt for a new Landy, preferably a TD5 90, but beggers cant be choosers eh..
carbore:
OK,
Working form home every other week which is quite a lot of saving as I commute from Cornwall to Glos, then train to London weekly! BUt this is mainly becuase we have just had our first child.
Alos looking at removing the "beast rack" a big brownchurch safari rack, however I needed it for the first time in 3 monts to get some plasterboard so until our flats finished its best to keep it on.
Ironically I have a very economical car, my Elise does stupid miles per gallon even with the mods, I nearly fainted when it used almost HALF what I use in the freelander to get from stroud to camborne. The only problem is I dont want to leave it at the train station for 3 days and its on limited miles insurance.
PS I think rascals are cool, no one who drives one is uncertain of their manhood (unless its a florist van)
Boggert:
So, the idea this wonderful goverment has of increasing road tax and fuel duty is to reduce the amount of traffic therefore reduce immissions is just increasing the amount of cars we own!
Not sure where the logic is in that! :?

That RASCAL is screaming out for a trick paint job with big gnarly teeth on the front.
