If you're looking to cut costs, buy a cheaper (than the diesel equivalent) small engined petrol.

I hear VAG are developing a 170bhp 1.2 unit....I wonder where they are planning to slot that into?

I'm told there's going to be a new Lupo. My source was very certain about it but these things are never certain until you actually see them.

Think Ill stick to my Gt tdi for a few more years...I will have changed just about every thing on the car so I won't have to buy a new one :grin:

To be honest the government are too corrupt to even take any notice of the voting tax payer :mad: so we will just keep paying what ever it goes upto :scared:

I see it like this every one is quite happy going out at the weekend and paying £3-£4 for a pint of whatever 1ltr is more or less a pint so if petrol or diesel was the same price would you still pay it...YES  I have to get to work for 10pm on a night I'm not going through Leeds on no stinking smelly bus, Ill use my car till the cows come home :drinking:
