for me
and theres no way in hell id drive one of those 1.buggerall fart box eco things

eco drive,, fugit , i drive, if i need fuel i need fuel,,

...and don't get me started on the START-STOP....

to the OP - hot/cold tyre pressure is not THAT different, I noticed that when checking the pressure, assuming I am trying to have 33PSI in every tyre, when I am pumping them up after heavy driving I am putting +1PSI to compensate for expansion, so 34 in each. When car is cooled down and I am checikig pressure when not driving, its usually around 33 then. Just so you know.

Debatable, not sensible but I think technically they have the right of way.
