  Well, I've just changed the gas guzzling Shogun for a much leaner Outlander (which I'm very pleased with) and can report that we got from Berwick Upon Tweed to Gillingham on almost exactly a full tank, £78.40. This is less than half what the Shogun cost in fuel for the same trip; if this is a gauge (!) of what is to come over the course of a year this will significantly reduce the quantity of fuel I buy. Although I loved the Shogun - it was the best car I've ever owned - the harsh truth is that changing it will drive down my fuel consumption by roughly 50%, so was a no-brainer. I'm sick to death of hearing the Exchequer telling me how much they care for the small businessman by holding down fuel prices - do I look stupid? - so one has to economise in the most practical way possible - ie not letting the Government act on my behalf.
  
  If everyone does likewise, that might go some way to explaining why fuel sales are falling.
