Just got bent over twice at the forecourt.  Had to fill both mine and the wife's car.  Both 70 litre tanks :(
£1.40p/l and £1.47p/l :(

That's what I'm doing now, looking at the price is just depressing, I need the petrol so in it goes! :gag:

About £55 to fill my MX-5, not really noticed a price change lately but I barely drive anywhere at the moment, costs too much!

I check because in the local area (<5 miles), prices can differ by up to 15p. It's only a small tank but it can still add up to an extra £5.

I don't drive at all now, although I think that has more to do with nobody thinking I'm safe driving - especially not me.

My brother drives his little Fiat Panda 1.2 to work every day, filling it is fairly reasonable at about £30-40 and it sips the juice. £35 year road tax is a bonus.

It costs me over £30 to drive from London to home (Cheltenham) now, so £60+ for a trip. I've done that for the last 4 weekends for various reasons.

Really starts to add up.

Interestingly I have a BP staff fuel card which gives me a (non) spectacular 3p off per litre. BP are almost always 3p more than the closest supermarket so I rarely use it.
