Home and travel and even more general than parkers.
I said a 2.3 was a medium engine.

My carbon footprint is: 9.09 tonnes (Thats more like it).

Lightweight.

15.49 tonnes.

But still doesn't take into account multiple vehicle ownership.

11.3 tonnes here; I only do 30k a year, I suspect you do more.

Hang on, I forgot about the ~10k in the Vectra, it falls into the same
category as the Pug...

14.32 tonnes with that extra 10k.

I can't put in my other vehicles as it doesn't recognise bikes or older
cars.

Tell me about it.  My 84 Landcruiser is one of the thirstiest cars I've ever
driven.  And my CBR1100XX gets similar milage to the corolla I am driving
around while my Liberty gets fixed.

10 tons if I only do 15k a year in the Rangies.

If I do 50k a year in them, it rises to a much more impressive 27.67
tonnes. I will have to try to do 50k a year now.

Carbon footprint indeed. It may be what I use, but I still think it's a
load of tree-hugging Luddite students who don't understand how the world
works.

Oh, and there's no "LPG" option for fuel, so if I go for LPG in the next
few months does that mean I'm back at 10 tons, or will they find a way
of making it 500?

I tried to put in the registration of the wagon I'm driving but it
wouldn't have it. A 14 litre diesel doing 450 miles or so a day should
clinch it.
