It's called economy, we seek it, we have to because we ain't got much money.

A sub one litre engine equals a fraction of the tax paid on a more capable vehicle and with that insurance and fuel costs too, besides the fact that I don't need anything bigger, so why haul around the extra unnecessary dead weight.

We are what we are, the majority of us at least a very practical as a people, as everything costs and money saved is money not spent, that is available for other things in our lives.

Besides many of us just don't need manhood enhancers, that is the reserve of the vain and those that feel well inadequate in some way.

Relax Aneirin, I was only joking.

Although I don't use them, I can well understand the reasons people buy 4x4s for use in London - the potholes around here are so bad it's got beyond a joke. I've got 2 cars (one workhorse, one "high days" performance) and the workhorse (a very strong car) has had its front suspension knocked out *3* times in the last 2 years by various massive holes in the ground, at a repair cost in excess of £1,500. In my road alone there are over a dozen (I kid you not), and I live in a fairly upmarket area. They patch them (badly) every 6 months or so - that lasts about a month, then you're back to picking your way through the minefield again.

They're the most badly maintained roads I've ever seen in a major world capital - I think they're actually worse now than New York, back in the day. I was driving a friend around a while back and he said he thought at first I was drunk, but it was just that I know where so many of the holes are now that I use very odd road placements in order to avoid the worst of them.

Given how much taxation is squeezed out of the humble motorist it's a fucking disgrace.

When I lived in London I always lived in central London and a car would just have been a nightmare (parking, ha - traffic double ha), I found that it was much cheaper and practical to use public transportation or cab it.

Zone 1 it's where it's at, at a push Zone 2, everything else, hard limit...

I love American cars too, those of a certain period being my favourite, that period the mid sixties through to the mid seventies the age of the muscle car and only the other day I was drooling over a '69 Mach 1 Mustang I saw in an old 007 movie and then went onto to find them on the net, beautiful cars, and cars that can only be copied today.

Hell, my first car love was a first generation Camaro customised in a street fighter style. The trans Am was a little bit ott for my tastes.

But as to the transport options in London, they are superb, but all they do is make our politicians view through Mary Antoinette eyes when they consider the transport options available to more far flung regions of this country. With that, public transport is a virtualy useless, expensive and unreliable option that after three years of it's angry use I have conceded and am going back to the car, well, noddy van against governmental wishes, but hey, they don't have the public transport we have down here.

The taxation on the motorist is I agree too harsh, but you do understand, that taxation is not for motoring concerns with one exception, the dreded yearly road tax levied on size of engine and it's supposed pollutant output, the bigger the motor, it is deemed you have money and there must pay more for that privlige. But the road tax does it's job well, for it's true name and origin is the congestion tax designed to ease congestion in built up areas, but I look at it in another way, you pay your congestion tax you get your congestion, so what are you moaning at, you have only got what you paid for. If you don't want congestion, it is simples, dont pay for it.

NYC has a great public transportation system, I would consider it on par with London, Paris or Munich, even Rome is fine if you don't mind to get your derriere pinched ;)

I can't stand public transport. It's full of bloody proles.

And they won't let you enjoy a nice Cuban cigar either. It's inhumane I tell you!

Road Tax isn't used for motoring funding, nor even Transport. It's a generally, not specifically, levied tax, ergo it goes into the same pot as the rest of government coffers. This means that, bizarely, if you drive a car or ride a bike you're paying more (lots more, once you take into account VAT & Duty on petrol, oil, spares etc) towards, say, the war in Iraq. Which, IMHO at least, is wrong.

On a local level, London provides by far the greatest monetary benefit to the UK as a whole of any region, and yet is taxed disproportionately highly.

This is Wrong.

Still, it does at least keep out some of the riff-raff

Ahh, you see, I'm not posh (like what you is) so I don't mind mixing with the plebs, if public transportation gets me somewhere quicker I'll take it, I hate driving round and round the block hoping there might be a parking space available.

I actually remember when you could smoke on the top deck of a bus, maybe 10 years ago or so, but you know the right way of enjoying a nice cigar is in front of an open fire place, with a nice single malt, a good brandy or a glass of port, faithful hound in front of you (hopefully not trying to chew up anything it shouldn't chew up) and a good book or good conversation. But we have that non smoking rule in the house, now that's inhumane...

Indeed so ... the one I miss most is having a nice cigar after a good meal, in a restaurant. I know legions of moaners will now descend on me, and yes I know it's anti-social, but I did used to love it.

Nowadays the only way is in summer, in an open area ... hence my love of France, although even they have "banned" smoking now*

*in the French sense of the word "banned", which generally equates to "enforced if we don't like you" - I normally manage to find a quiet corner somewhere, usually guided by that odd "French waiter's nod to indicate direction" thing they do (presumably so they can say later they didn't tell you that you could?), and last year ended up sitting next to a policeman in uniform. I hesitated to spark up, knowing the penalties for the restaurant, but he noticed me sitting there with an un-cut Montecristo, laughed, reached into his pocket and waved a pack of Gitanes at me, indicating it was ok to proceed.

Since I'm not a lady of leisure but actually do work, that would make me working class too...

I don't really mind the smoking bans in restaurants, Austria and Germany seem to have it sorted by having certain areas designated for smoking, so you have your meal, then you can retire to a nicely ventilated area with your coffee or digestive beverage of choice, sit back in cosy arm chairs and enjoy a cigar or cigarette.

I'm quite fond of Cuban tobacco products, though I do prefer the Coronas, at a push, there are some really nice cigars that come out of the Dominican Republic or Central America... Thankfully I'm not a snob...

That would be fine by me too but the UK's ban (despite being listed as different in the manifestos of every party) turned out to be a blanket one.

Ah well, such is life.

It's not that I'm a snob, merely that I find the Dominican (and others) cigars nowhere near as good as aged Cuban cigars. I don't smoke them often, you understand (cigarettes the rest of the time) but I do love them upon occasion.

The UK seems to be a bit anal about it, I've seen pubs in Germany declaring that from 9pm (or whatever time they pick) on they are a smoker's club and by entering you become a member of the club, so it's usually fine if you like to smoke inside.

On average the Cuban cigars are better, but there are a few brands from other places that are on par, next time you're on the continent, go to a good tobacconist (preferably one with a walk in humidor) and tell them, they might be able to advise you, I always found the ones that carry Dupont lighters have excellent staff and tend to be very knowledgeable.

That's the British way. Fuck things up with no recourse to common sense.

Noted, and thanks. Generally I buy my cigars in either Cuba (doh!) or tax-free places like Andorra (absolute shit-hole, but cheap cigars). What I generally do is take one day when I'm in the south of France to put together an over-the-border raid for Cubans
