    Goodbye Gertie

    (doesn’t everyone name their cars!?)

    So today after 3 years and 57470 miles Gertie Golf goes back so:

    57470 miles / 32mpg (avg) = 1796 gallons of go juice
    1796 gallons = 8165 litres
    8195 x 115p litre (expensive fuel, rather than the norm) = 9424.25 UKP

    of which 6126 UKP went straight to the government in fuel tax

    Nice.

    Or how about :

    57470 miles @ avg speed of 20 mph = 2873.5 hours
    2873.5 hours / 24 = 119 days 17.5 hours driving
