There are very few poor people driving XYGTs.

If you have no money but need a car do you:
a) buy a XB falcon for $3k that gets 15l/100km on a good day
b) an EB falcon for $3k that gets 10l/100km
c) a toyota crown etc that gets 8l/100km

If you are poor then the extra $20 per week in petrol is a MAJOR problem isn't it?
