     Design a simple dashboard meter to calculate the
     actual cost of motoring. Information such as the initial
     cost of the car, road tax, insurance, and servicing would
     be entered before use, along with the car’s fuel
     economy and petrol costs (which need to be regularly
     updated). The meter would measure distances travelled

     giving the driver a real comparison to alternatives
     offered by public transport and the backup to charge
     passengers petrol money with authority.
