Re: Old Motor

in which case, 30 quid of petrol is 5 gallons so no more than 200 miles/year in which case you definately would be better using taxis......

BTW, its not good to fill up annually as modern petrol "goes off" and can cause injectors etc to gum up leading to big bills for replacing....

I do find it intersting that you sate its 1-2K that "you dont need" yet you profess to searching out every possible deal to save pennies here and there.....

The handful of taxi trips would also be more than none........

I'd also ask how "good" a driver can be with so little exposure to the road and driving conditions today. Its often said the roads are not what they were and even a pup like me can see the difference in volume/attitude/quality of driving over the last 10 years...

I know that when I dont ride my motorcycles for a short while I am "rusty" when I get back on so I'd hate to think how you must feel....
