"Drivers of big cars - losers

Mr Brown is freezing vehicle excise duty for drivers of small and medium-sized cars, considered to be more ecologically-friendly. Most other car drivers will pay an extra £5 a year.

A freezing in fuel duties means that most drivers will benefit to the tune of 1p a litre in terms of extra taxes they won’t have to pay.

This works out at about 20 pence a week for a typical driver who may put about 20 litres of fuel in his or her car"

That'll teach me to drive a gas guzzler!!
