Well, I've just been out to the local petrol station to refil the ZX's tank....

 

 

.....Cost me £61.46 :shock:

 

I think the most it's cost me until now was around £55 :(

 

I got a shock when it first broke the £50 barrier but this is rediculous :mad:

 

Richard

£45 here with optimax

£45 here with optimax

Im coming to southend to fill up then......put £40 in her yesterday and was under 3/4 of a tank full.

 

91p a Litre

£45 for full tank of optimax here!!

damn...what price is that per litre?

I payed 94 pence a litre a scotch corner yesterday FFS!!!

just filled the supe up, £56.89 ouch!:(

I put in £50 yesterday and my warning light wasnt even on in the first place.

 

Optimax is 92.9 at my local Shell!!

**** me i'm staying down south!

on average for me it's 58 Euro, which is roughly £40 . Not too bad i guess.

That's not bad Chewie, but I believe your raod tax 'aint far off a grand is it? :eek:

 

Why is it that much fella?...do they go on engine size over there?

yep, i wasn't going to mention that yet again!!... but it's true 1200 euro for anything 3 ltr. or over. My Mrs. drives a fiat sicento which is about 800cc and that's 300Euro..................I Know!

Chewie - but your car is only 2960cc?? Tell them that one!

 

Ivan

you lot seem to pay a hell of alot per ltr im only 84 down here never filled car right up no enough dosh

94p here optimax.

 

15 quid in the bimmer doesnt even get it out of the red light. Although its a bit stupid as nearly a the whole lower quater of the tank on the guage is all red lol.

FOOKIN HELL what ever happened to the luck of the irish?

I never knew that. 1200e a year? I bet though it wont be long before its that much here too? The way they just pile it on the motorist is criminal.

What price is diesel over there chewie?

My works astravan is even becoming expensive to run? 93.5p for diesel here mostly. Fookin robbin' B'strds.

 

 

 

Still what can we do????

Local Shell....88.9 optimax :D:D then put a nice little Black bottle of Nitrox in just to boost the octane that little bit higher :D:D

Seems to work on the emmisions on the MOT of the other cars i have had...;)

Also does tend to clean out the injectors aswell, but then like other things that IMHO :cool:
