Wish it was like that for me when I was 16! My first car was the Capri so driving to school and back in it each day (in High Wycombe, small world Paul!) was expensive enough, let alone fuel being £1.36 a litre at the time!! :(

It's really shitty especially for low income families that depend on thier car, or first time car owners that just passed thier tests. Insurance is astronomical enough at thier age, now this on top. Shameful, and all completely avoidable. All because of liars and ignorance.

Still...could be worse:
