Fine but when the high-mileage user is your local supermarket guess how they pay the tax. Also you might discover getting to the supermarket has become rather more expensive in fuel costs as well. Those fuel costs are the quickest way to boost inflation, so expect your mortgage payments to go up in an effort to control inflation.
