Real Rockers Drive Jags
Petes Rocked By Fuel Price Hike (from The Wiltshire Gazette and Herald)
Troubled rocker Pete Doherty spends almost £100 filling up his gas-guzzling 3.6litre XJ6 Sovereign, which does just 20 miles to the gallon.
And he pays another £180-a-year on the ageing motor's road tax, and an estimated £100-per-year on engine oil.
Today a pal revealed Doherty was ''p*ssed'' about the cost of fuel, but said he refuses to buy a more economical car.
"Pete isn't really the sort of person you'd expect to drive a hybrid-type car - he's a wild man of rock, after all.''
How unlike Coldplay's Chris Martin! How refreshing in this sanctimonious world.
Comments
He probably uses a tank a week but probably spends £100 a day on his nose candy.
At least his bank balance is still going up. Many more have to live day to day on £100pw and without the nose candy.
