        At what MPG does your vehicle become a "Gas Guzzler"?

        This phrase is obviously American in origin (hence the term 'gas' as opposed to 'petrol' or 'fuel') and some of their vehicles in the 12 - 18 MPG bracket would I guess qualify as a 'Gas Guzzler'!

        As Surfs tend to be between 22 to 26 MPG (best I've achieved was 24MPG), would that not make them a 'Slightly Gas Guzzlers'?
        Got an itch, might need to scratch it soon.

          • a new higher band of graduated VED (band G), set at £210 for petrol cars, will
          be introduced for the most polluting new cars (those above 225g of carbon
          dioxide emissions per kilometre);

          • the VED rate for the small number of cars with the very lowest carbon
          emissions (band A) will be reduced to £0 to encourage take-up and assist the
          development of the low carbon car market;

          • VED rates will also be reduced for band B by £35 and C by £5, frozen for
          bands D and E, and increased by £25 for band F;

          • rates for pre-2001 registered cars and light goods vehicles in the lower band
          will be frozen with the higher band increased by £5;

          • the reduced rate of graduated VED for alternative fuel cars will be extended to
          include those cars manufactured to run on high blend bioethanol (E85); and

          • In total, 50 per cent of cars will see their VED frozen or reduced.Three million
          cars will pay VED of £100 or less.
          so there it is. we all pay an extra fiver. no matter what fuel we use..
          it's in me shed, mate.

            I saw that too. what do they class as biofuels? and where can i get some!! I've often been tempted to allow a bit of veg oil to fall into my tank, but if i can do it officially and save money, then that must be good?

            cheers,

              erm, i looked at the budget document... and it seems that the extra tax is due on petrol fuelled vehicles over 225gCO2/km;

              a new higher band of graduated VED (band G),set at £210 for petrol cars, will be introduced for the most polluting new cars (those above 225g of carbon dioxide emissions per kilometre)

              and

              rates for pre-2001 registered cars and light goods vehicles in the lower band will be frozen with the higher band increased by £5;

              My tax disc says 'heavy oil'

              And it's a lot older than 2001 (tommy, not the tax disc ;-)

              Or did i read it wrong... Or have peeps been reading the Daily Mail agin .... noooooo !

              I think the Chancellor had a very nice and middle of the road budget. And i even like the goverment. Most of the time. There, i've said it...

                  Phew

                  Ok so the panic is (nearly) over, as usual the govenment couldn't tell the differance between diesel fuel & diesel jeans!

                  We have a lot of upset people in our office with their newer vehicles, I can now say "mine has only gone up a fiver"!

                    acording to dvla, a 3.0 landcruiser is rated at 243, so they pay lots of extra duty... showoffs....
