Thats about the same for me.

But Ive started using the bus a lot more. its putting less miles onto my car, less stress sitting on a bus and not having to worry about the driver getting road rage and I dont have to pay for parking, atleast £3.50 a day or find a dodgy parking spot. Ive only filled up once so far this month, Id normally be on my 2nd tank.

The only time my Mazda has broken down was when it overheated as the radiator fan fuse had gone. It is worth pointing out that the engine is the only reliable thing on the car though, the electric windows are buggered :lol:
