Im spending ~£350 a month just on petrol. f**k me.
Yeah its gotten mad, costing over £17 to fill my bike up!!
Ive not filled up for about 8 weeks because I barely drive these days, but 116.9 per liter is the cheapest I can find round me. I was horrified!

$1.81 Ish here.
Coming up to November time last year it as $1.64 and a year before that it was $1.3xs
Daft. Stock is not the issue the news keeps saying it is supplies and issues with asian shipments and what not. Cartel at work again.
I worked out the other day that if I had had my current car back when I first started driving 8 years ago, it would have cost me ~£12.50 less to fill up, IE, It costs about £40-45 now, it would have cost about £27-30 back then...
In the scheme of things I dont know whether it makes it seem better or worse. In one moment Im thinking its not too bad an increase given the time frame, in another I am reminded that its still a 50% increase :(

Im moving in a couple of weeks, so clearing all the stuff that followed me from my parents house 4 years ago. I found my 1st fuel receipt for the GTi. 60p for Four-Star, if i remember correctly unleaded was about 12 pence less than that!
I paid 118.9 for some diesel last night on the motorway services, thankfully only needed a top up. Its getting silly
£10 for 200miles - ah the joys of riding a motorbike :)

I pay about £15-£20 more for the same distance.
£60 for 500 miles. The joys of being sensibly grown up and buying a diesel :(

~£1.24p/l
Jaimz :rock:
$2.60 to $3.00 a gallon depending on your state.
getting about 500miles to £65 which isnt bad for a big old high miles diesel.
The prices are f**king rediculous though.
Well at least that makes me feel better about my car ><
Prices arent going to go down much, unless you can organise a worldwide recession.
About 112p per litre around here, not as bad as some areas.
Fiat Panda, about 380 miles to the 35 litre tankful, although my brother does the driving.
methanol is only £18 for 25 litres.
200 litres is way cheaper per litre.
Just spent £80 to fill the soarer....and the light wasnt even on yet.
used veg oil 20p/litre ;)
tho i ran out the other day..... so had to buy some new veg oil.... 70p/litre :(
waste veg oil from customer sites....free :)
Straight into the tank in the xantia, no heating required :)
