What is a good car to replace my mobile banknote incinerator? It needs to cruise comfortably on the motorway and around town & cope occasionally with a family of 4. It needs to burn petrol instead of £20 notes, and preferably not too much of it.

Anything with a huge engine and LPG.
LPG is ace, and you look dead cool with the hose stuck in the car by itself and you pressing the big knob for the flow, whilst gawping at the proles in their Euroboxes filling up at twice the price.
