As Car Prices Fall Petrol Prices Increase

A few weeks ago the whole nation thought fuel costs were becoming more reasonable, but this has drastically changed once again.

It seems really strange to me, just because of the fact that the vehicle industry have been suffering somewhat and they have now seen a rescue package in the form of the scrappage system. This is simply where the government give you £1000 for new cars and the manufacturers give you another £1000, so in total you get £2000 towards a new car if your vehicle is older than a decade.

It leads you to wonder as to whether or not the increase in fuel prices were planned to cover losses from the scrappage system. I mean everyone knows that no one gives away money, not even the government, so there must be more to this then meets the eye.

In other ways the government could be getting their money back from the increase in tax fuel prices. We are currently in a credit crisis, the costs should literally be lower then low, but they are not, they are forever increasing.

Although the authorities have said that they are doing this to help save the environment, that saying could in fact be true, but I in no way see them losing cash to save the planet becaouse that is just not the way that things seem to work in the world.

So summing up if you are looking to get a new vehicle then I would go for one that is a lot more economical to save you money on fuel.
