Dear Carl,

Thanks for taking the trouble to email me with your thoughts about this.
Whilst I appreciate what you say, I must remind you that the cost of
motoring has been declining by 1 to 1.5% per year in real terms over the
last 10 years.

Best wishes,



Michael

Ah yes it's cheaper.

That must be why it now costs me around £10 (a rise of nearly 20%) more to fill up now than it did 5 years ago, yet my pay hasn't gone up 20% in the last 5 years (I wish!).

I'd send that to the national press - they'd have a field day with it!

Well here in japan petrol priced have rocketed down, by around 15p :O
But in exchange for cheaper petrol, the road tax which you pay which is included in the mot equivalent (called shakken for those who are interested - means car check lol) has gone up to about £150 - £200 depending on the age of your car (older is cheaper)

Il put my name on the list in case i ever come back to the uk, and at least so you guys and my family and friends "might" get cheaper fuel

just a thought, you said that pistonheads were a joke for putting the protest down on their forum, why not email the people at piston heads and see if they can put something on there homepage linking to your website, there are lots of people who use piston heads but dont use the forum, so this may help a bit?
