Does engine size matter? Oh, yes I love big cars with big engines. What that says about me I do not know. But in my back, is beautiful. This costs me a fortune and when I stop for petrol on my mid-winter commute, people look at me in strange ways from their smart iCars and pious hybrids - but I don't care.

It costs me an extra £42.23 a week to commute by Rover V8 compared to my wife's newish Golf (yes, I've worked it out), it is 100% worth it. It's the only vice I've got left, and I'm not giving it up.
