Allright.
Traded my Opel Astra Stationwagon for something smaller.
Less road tax, better mileage, the lot.

The one on the left, obviously

It is physically impossible for me to be any less surprised.

You don't have that there?
You have to pay a monthly fee here to drive a car, unless it's older than 25 years.
The amount you have to pay depends on the weight of the car. That's why I bought a lighter, smaller car

I'm 24 and I still haven't been able to afford my first car. I got my permit when I was 16. It expired before I ended up taking the final test. When I was 19 I got my license and it expired 3 months ago. Never used it. Well, actually, I pulled my friends car from the sidewalk into the driveway once. So in the time I had my license I drove less than 1/100 of a mile. Sucks.

Sure sucks.
I'm not sure what car insurance/road tax (if any) costs there, but overhere it's quite allright.
My car cost me about 850 dollars. It's got some dents but it drives very well. Mileage is reasonable, about 112500miles. These Peugeot engines are pretty much indestructable so I'm not too worried about that.
Insurance is about 250 dollars a year, road tax about the same.
Fuel on the contrary... I pay 1.56 euro's a liter in Germany (overhere it's about 10 cents more expensive).
A gallon is 4,55 litres. So I pay 7 euro's per gallon, which is about 9 dollar a gallon. So that's insane.
