I'll graciously ignore the first part of your comment.

But relating to health care, yes we can get it free, eventually if we are lucky, but this is because we have an amount taken off every pay cheque to pay for this, from the day we start work. (so just like having private).

Even then, because the health system is so crap now, most people above a certain level have private cover as well, the same as you do, because if your really are ill, you never know when you will be treated or what standard of treatment you will receive from the National Heath System.

Just out of curiosity...what did you pay for your Crossfire...I paid £20,000 ($40,000) for a Roadster this time last year and it was a year old then! New would have been ($54,000).
