according to the home page, the most expensive UK price is £1.46.9 that = £6.68.4 per gallon

at 25 mpg's thats 27p per mile

i strongly suspect that due to the unrest in the middle east at present , fuel prices will rocket

(RIP) PLANK · 21-02-2011, 19:43

any old excuse, when there is a sudden outbreak of peace, will the price go down?

we're hovering around £1.30 a litre here.

saw a bit of good justice yesterday, one of the worst profiteering garage sites in Middlesbrough went bust and after a short spell as a van sales site is now a block of flats

our local ASDA is holding out at £1.29.9 (£1.30 really) that "point nine" makes me laugh, next time you fill up stop on exactly 2 litres and see what you are really paying

Down Lacroupade's neck of the woods it was as high as £1.38.9 - shocking!

can't a bloke plead a bit of poverty from time to time? I might have had a cheque in the post!

any road, I tend not to use much in winter - can you imagine the starting problems at -16C which is what we had for about three weeks not long ago?

that's why i haven't gone much over 50%, i came to Wales and back on about 80% and then I added some diesel just before home.
