Screw Amazon. Buy at the big green shed, or better still support an aussie online business and stick with hoselink.

Euphemistic commented on Modern Diesels and Short Trips
Get a petrol hybrid instead. Diesel is dead except for long distance or tow duties.
Bigger vehicles are also indirectly taxed more via fuel excise. They use more fuel, therefore pay more tax.
