Just for fun(!!!!!###**!!) if your car does 20mpg, and you drive 12,000 miles a year, in the UK the fuel would cost you $3600. The same fuel in the US would cost you $960.

No wonder Prof Henry enjoys his road trips.... just don't try doing them over here!

The last time I was in England (about 4 years ago) even with the high fuel prices the motor ways were bumper to bumper.like us yanks you Brits really love your cars!Phil
