Renewed mine last year. Around $70 for all three cars...

Girl at the Tag Agency: "You know, they are letting you pay for two years now and you will save money because of the slight increase next year..."

$70 for all 3? Feck, and I thought mine was cheap!

I get slightly more raped on the Corvette as it is still fairly new... $180 last time

On the plus side, I just took my motorcycle test for $10

Everywhere is a long way away though.

Just make sure you live somewhere with roads with bends in...

Its a shame all the best driving roads are in the Alps, Pyrenees or Lake/Peak District!

You'd think a driving forum would be chuffed to have the chance to 'drive', and the "bendy rods are only in Europe" line is quite wrong. We have our 'b' roads, as well as 'a' roads... You just have to get off the main roads.

Pft, that's an hour of valuable drinking time lost if you have to walk two miles there and back. Not that the Americans I know have ever had much of a problem with drinking and driving.

Of course everyone in the UK lives within 2 miles of a decent pub, don't they? Actually, 2 miles isn't really that far to walk.

Dunno, but there's 6 pubs within two miles of here, and two of them are pretty good.

Do they do decent beer there or is all "lite"

[kambites]

There are actually some really good breweries in the US, they're just small.
