Cut your motor costs: tyres
If your car tyres are 10% under inflated this will give you 2.5% lower fuel economy and 15% increase in tyre wear. When buying tyres you can get get big discounts if you replace more than one. Also shop around and get a price in advance, otherwise you will get priced at what the tyre fitter feels like when you turn up.

Check tax band before buying
Check tax band before buying Car tax now based on CO2 emissions. Use vcacarfueldata.org.uk to work out the tax band (A to G) of your motor. The tax could be zero (Gwiz, hybrids) to £400 for larger cars. Unfortunately the Government is applying the tax retrospectively on cars up to 6 years old, so you could be in for a shock if you don't check up on what tax you will have to pay.
