Should the government refuse tax /vat deduction on company cars say over 2ltr diesel and 1.6ltr petrol?

What hypocracy it is to on the one hand to increase motoring costs for private individuals almost to inaffordability, whilst at the same time in effect encouraging businesses to purchase and run mostly totally unecessary gaz guzzling monster cars through tax insentives, allowing them to be entered in the expenditure section of their account? What sense is there in having 4 ltr upwards cars able to do somewhere up to 200mph on British roads with top maximum speed limit of 70 mph?

It's called freedom.
I run a car capable of speeds in excess of the national speed limit, as do most people. The additional power allows me to overtake in safety.
I pay higher taxes and insurance, so I contibute more to society than a Prius driver.
