    at a very quick glance i couldnt find a 92 merc 190 nor a toyota estima. i notice you have the uk previa there but there are loads of different types with different engines etc: estima/ lucida/ emina. i think theyre worth adding cos they are fairly popular cars.

    eta: oh, i get it- its an age-ist thing? :rolleyes: :rotfl:

    none of my previous cars (from the last 5 years) are on there! :o:D

    Hi all,

    I built and run the website TripCost.co.uk, it is free to use and will tell you how much you'll spend on fuel for any journey in any car.

    It also has tips on how to drive more efficiently and functions as a full journey planner.

    I'd love to hear what you all think of it, and hopefully it can help save everyone some money on future journeys.

    Cheers
    Matt Bearman

    Are you open to making it available for other websites???
  • No TVRs on the list.
  • Lol tried it with mine, my car, a 1997 Corsa Breeze wasn't listed, my postcode for near Worksop came up with an address in Wisconsin, and my destination, a postcode in Birmingham came up with Texas...a round trip of 948 miles :-)
