Vera - Road Tax!

They are taking the piss.  £101 per year to use it on the road. Had to pay it.  To do six months and bearing in mind it is all electronic now (no tax discs to display) to do six months is £55.50!  Over a year that's £11 extra for doing nothing. Robbing bastards!

I get 56-60 miles to each and every gallon and pay way more than the car that manages 40! 

Got back from a dog walk along the White Cliffs of Dover. Went out to the garage and fired her up. First press on the button after more than three months not being used. Let her run for a few minutes to warm u a bit.

I was dumbstruck!  That doesn't happen all that often!

I need to get out tomorrow as it is mildish for the season. Today allegedly 11°C according to the weather forecasters. The car showed 10°C briefly in the weak winter sunshine when we climbed back in at the White Cliffs.

I think tomorrow it's a quick run to find a jet wash and then back home dry off and squirt on some ACF50 on the paint and plastic and maybe try the  foam cleaner on the wheels and spokes.
