23000 / 220 = 104.5 tanks
104.5 x 70 = ?7315 approx

The 120 would be ?4181 approx so I have a saving of ?3134 approx so even with the 1k off for the extra on the car its still worth it mainly because of the mileage im doing and thats without the tax and insurance saving.
I think you talking yourself into a 120.... and I think you fuel cost projections are optimistic.....I hope you dont jump from the frying pan into a slow burning fire matey
