The cost of a gallon of petrol
This is grim reading
Diesel £1.81 a litre (depending on where you buy) 4.5 litres to a gallon. 1.81 x 4.5 = £8.15 a gallon.:eek: macafee2 |
My closest station is showing £1.93 for a litre of diesel and £1.91 for E10 petrol (mind you, it is consistently the most expensive station in my area). How soon until that number is over £2? I have also recently noticed myself thinking that anything below £1.70 is a really good price...

Yup, £2 within the next month! Place your bets.
|
I would, but I have to save them for filling the tank with!

That was another reason for me selling the Bear, my V8 ZTT 400. When i attended the Frimley breakfast meet it was a round trip of 380 miles. I had to fill up to get there and fill up to get home. Those with a nervous twitch look away now.
Cost £130. Oh! But the noise was worth it. |
About time some of the tax was taken off it particularly VAT.

First part time job I had at College was working at a local petrol station (1976)
2 star was 35p a gallon 3 star 37p a gallon 4 star 38p a gallon If you look at inflation over the years today for example 3 star would be around £2.45 a gallon ;) Just shows how taxation has increased massively over the years that and how much we're being taken overcharged ;) Russ |
Anyone having thoughts of going electric due to fuel prices?
My driving has changed, I drive slower, probably accelerate slower and without doubt try to combine journeys. I have been surprised how may miles I am doing. macafee2 |
Ain't filled anything other than me mowers for over 2 months. Jag will need some this week though.

But
