That's about 500 Euro / year.

I'd rather pollute less, burn less oil (which we'll need for more worthy purposes in future), and at the same time pour less money into the hands of despicable companies / despicable countries / religious zealots.
My additional 40-50% of a tank (each one costs £60-70 at the moment) means I have paid for my annual tax (£130) in 3-4 tanks which is 3 months of so. Unfortunately insurance on Helga is high as she is sporty...
