I pay £140 per year for my car tax and I drive 9000 miles per year.

 

My car averages 60 miles on 7 litres of fuel (40mpg)  so I use around 1050 litres of fuel per year.

 

To recover my tax in an increase in petrol prices I would need to pay an extra 13p per litre.

 

That would increase my weekly fuel budget by £2.60.

 

I can live with that.

The mileage I do is almost the same as yours, around 25000 in the last three years. I could live with the increase too.
