Has anyone found out what the CO2 output of their TVR is, and as a consequence how much good old Gordon would sh@g you if your Tiv was a company car ?

Me, I'm glad I took the cash so all he can do to me tax me on my income , my petrol , my insurance , my road fund licence , the car's servicing ... ... ...

Pity it doesn't take into account mileage - I only do about 2,000 a year in the Griff. Still, once they've had all my money they can't have any more, that's it, sorry Nulab, that's all, nothing left, go away.

You already do, it's called Council Tax which was changed from Poll Tax because we all kicked up such a fuss that this new 'Poll Tax' thing was percieved as a tax on existance and in no way contributed to Education, Health Service, Policing.........etc..

... and good old Ken will be charging by the day within the walls of London - I only hope we all get a wheelie bin so that we can keep of cars free of rubbish as we sit in the endless traffic jams caused by 'two-jags' bus lanes on the M4 and speed camera on the Embankment
