You would think so wouldn't you, but 1p on the price of fuel costs several hundred jobs, and puts up every single price in the shops.
You don't believe me???
Then ask yourself why inflation has been negative and prices actually dropping for the past few months.

Every time I mention my V8 and his T4 in the same sentence Brian says bad words which roughly mean go away!

Really wasn't asking for the obvious lesson on economics, just pointing out that a fairer system would be to pay for the amount you use the roads i.e. on fuel. Obviously no system is fair to everyone but it always seems to me that my 5k miles per annum equates to my neighbours 85k miles per annum and all the white van men's delivery mileages in terms of annual VED.

Obviously enthusiast owned as he knows & uses many of the proper places & knows the correct spec etc. An honest car I would say!!

Seems fairly decent to me as long as the price doesn't creep up too much, easy fixes for the little issues.

Well, its got a bid, reserve met.

So someone may be driving it away with change from 4 grand.

Btw, it cant be number 360 if its such a late one can it??

Its not that unusual, there's a list by VIN number in the member's section on the 260s Club, quite a few were registered well after they were produced.

With tax exemption rules for classics it is taken from the cars production date, not its first registration date.

Shame its not the same for the V8's, it might drag a few out of the MegaTax bracket!
