The difference in vehicle excise duty in the UK is currently £180 -vs- £490, so a Roadster 3.7 costs £310 per annum more than a Plus 4. In isolation that doesn't seam so bad bearing in mind the considerable difference in performance.

Would I be correct in thinking that servicing costs would be similar?

A good reason to keep the 1999 +8. Tax £230.

Servicing costs for my roadster vs the +4 I had are broadly the same

Sorry to hear that Steve. Hopefully you will stay on and still keep in touch.

And now by cutting the pension LTA they shaft you when you retire the expletive delated.

Still I see N Sturgeon is quoted in the Daily Wail as saying come 8/5 when the SNP control us then Scots should have an earlier retirement age as they have a lower life expectancy as depressed alcoholics munching on deep fried Mars Bars!!

Totally different cars the plus 4 and the 3.7 ! You have to rev the plus 4 to get the acceleration and change gear as well ! That's why they are so much fun !
