Break both legs and arms and back, register as Disabled, Claim higher Mobility allowance then you get Free Tax Disc.
Won't be able to drive is the only drawback I can see.

Yup... in my case, that's precisely what I was whining about! Mine's a 2.0-litre V6, so I won't even get the extra 'oomph' for my four-hundred-and-thirty smackers! Robbed, I am!

Not much at the moment, frankly. That Darling better not come round these parts, or I'll have something to say to him. It is ludicrous that my missus's 1996 Vauxhall Ashtray is going to stay at around 150 quid, when the thing is so old it's probably a veritable CO2 chimney in comparison to mine. I almost feel like going out and buying an old Mark 2 Cortina like I had 20 years ago, and getting some planet-killing emissions done, for free, just as payback. Grrr!

At Least go for the MK1 Lotus Cortina,
that should really put some Muck into the air.

You might not have to pay any Road Fund licence for it.

if you drive around the lotus for 20 years it will still put out less pollution than actually building you a "new" car.

Going backwards is going to be the new 'moving forward'....

p.s. mods - why havent we got any Dads Army smilies for "we're doomed"
