had to pay for my road tax this morning...
normally do 6 months, but then that would mean doing it again around my birthday/insurance/MOT etc etc
so i went for the year... £170 on the nose  
WTF.. that is crazy, we have crappy roads everywhere as it is.. so then they sting us for a silly amount of money (just cos i got a 2.0l )
GGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
