My car isn't a rust bucket and I'm not crying about fuel prices. I fill my car up once or twice a month and the fact that prices are high are an inconvenience to me as my car is simply a luxury item that I own. But some people require thier cars to get to work. You can make statements all you like about using public transport all you like, but the answer is simple. For a lot of people public transport is simply inadiquate for what they need. If you opened up your fucking eyes and perhaps didn't live in your internet warrior world that you do then you might understand that.

As long as you know its a luxury thats all that matters.
I do open my eyes and i need the jeep for work but i dont fucking moan about it.
So people keep saying about internet warrior pish but it hasnt stopped people u2u'ing me saying they dont want trouble at PVS and so on. So until you can prove the internet warrior shite, Shut the fuck up.

Timbaland grow up.
Its not hard or clever you just look stupid.
Cars are a modern day nessecity like it or not. Not just for you, but for ambulances fire engines buses trains planes boats and just about any vehicle that moves requires oil.
The fact it getting more expensive is inevitable but the rate it is increasing is to fast to be inline with the rate of inflation and what people are paid. This means its costing people who have little money etc more so that the fat cats at shell/bp ertc can earn another billion.
It will effect economic growth and also things like President Bush has called for the world to donate more money to the Famine/aid fund as they are spending more of the budget filling up the trucks to take the food.
Its negative and isnt just about a luxury you uneducated fool.

Not when all sorts of people on here go cruising around in there cars and down to shows etc, Thats using the car without need. If you have to use it , you pay a price.
I drive about in a Range Rover 4.6 and dont complain because it was the comany car i chose, I could have chose a 306 HDI if i wanted but didnt.
Grow up? Instead of seeing it as a debate you have to come on with the names, Your the one that should grow up.
Un-educated fool? Aye ok. Im younger than you and im guessing based upon your cars and lifestyle and for the fact your on here 24/7 that i earn more than you aswell, So untill then fuck up.

what has earning more got to do with inteligence? Plus exactly how do you know my lifestyle? Oh thats right it was an assumption, you dont.
The name calling was justified, as you deserve it. Simple as tbh. Your aggresive conduct constantly lets you look the fool.
you completely missed the point in my post, everyone hears what your saying about it bieng a choice etc. But it all has a negative effect on the WORLDand if your happy to piss your hard earned fortune away to make somebody who doesnt need them money even richer then so be it

A chap on the news said he had to do overtime to compensate for all the rises in tax!
I'm waiting for my nexrt aprasial, only then i can decide what to do. I either need morn money, more hours, move closer to work or look else where for work.
The goverment have brought in this new car tax crap where you can tax your car for £35 a year. It's a load of bollocks if you ask me, your're still paying silly amounts of tax on fuel.
The people who are not complaining about the cost of fuel don't know the value of money if you ask me. Or, they have a company car with fuel paid. I'm the first to admit i don't shop about when putting fuel in our company van. I'm not paying for it so a couple of quid doesn't matter.
Prices just continue to rise, yet it seems we cannot do a single thing about it
