That is very good. I would like a car for driving to work that does 60+ mpg at 70mph.

Mrs Rob has a '63 Ford S-Max 2L turbo diesel. It’s adequate. The Titanium models are quite nice inside and the Vignale is really nice.

We test drove a Zafira before the Ford and it was pants, wanted to wander all over the road, a disgrace to any Astra heritage it has.The S-Max drives quite nicely for a people carrier, has a decent load area and in 4 years hasn’t had a problem. It ate it’s first set of tyres fairly quickly, but we had the tracking done properly for the second set, and they’re still fine.

Don’t forget you can also earn more than the Sultan of Brunei if you use it for a flooring business :+1:

You can get all your kit in it, record fairs it will take in its stride and you can Uber it to make money on every trip you take, bargain.

‘Flooring business’ will be the name of Mr. MWS’s Funzie brothel. Embracing Nordic minimalist tradition this incredible ‘hot bed with no beds’ will specialize in carpet burns and laminate chaffing.

No wood here (sic)

You will only get heather burns.

I would certainly expect that the tax on fuel would hit diesel harder than petrol over the next five years. There may also be an adjustment on road tax or other penalties, but that strikes me as less likely, as it’s a retrospective hit.

I don’t really understand why our government isn’t hitting the car companies that fraudulently fixed emissions - Germany is, and they’re German companies! But that’s another discussion…
