1.15 is about the norm now for v-max or excelium and the like

thing is ... climate change is not related in any way shape or form to carbon emmisions so why can't they just stop forcing the moral bullcrap down our throats as an excuse to rip us off

Well yes it is, but the emissions from cars isnt a very large contributor to it.

Aye, I suppose to say not at all maybe wrong though the extent to which we're led to believe we contribute through using petrol is exagerated in the extreme.

Read an article in the local rag last month written by a one of the worlds most eminent professors on climate and geo thermal activity..the guy is employed at times by NASA to give information on climate activity and prediction...anyways...basically he doesn't subscribe to the global warming nonsense and gave definite reasons why it's all a load of rubbish.

Doubt the government will ever listen to him so we're just gonna keep getting taxed to the hilt in aid of the latest tooth fairy they cooked up, as always.

Can get regular unleaded in nearest Tesco at 126.9, local village garage (BP) is 130.9, which is a shame cos up until they "improved" it (a wild bean cafe ffs) 2 months ago it was the cheapest garage within a 5 mile radius

When I got my first car (1992) I'm sure I could get 4 star (yes I'm getting old, leaded petrol, not sure if that's :) or :( ) for 55.9, but price back then def :thumbup:

It seems like Britain isn't the only place paying a lot of tax on its petrol (a lot of people like to say that we are).

Shame though about the requirement to have your car preceeded by a man waving a red flag.

1.25~ normal

132.9 V-power.

I use V-power, the extra few quid for a full tank gives me better MPG anyway, and it feels more torquey

It'll get bumped again in a year when petrol is £1.50 and people are thinking "wow, it was considerably cheaper in Jan 11, what were we complaining about?".

Don't be such a total fud. You knew it had a spelling error, but you stuck it on there, with an explanation that you hadn't made the error. That would be worth the effort if that was even mildly funny, but it's absolute $hite.

You'll have to excuse my vitriol, but this title never really gets old round here. Petrol pumps here don't have a lever on them so you can just stick it in and lean on your car with your arms folded until it's spilling all over the forecourt. It's 6 pounds Sterling for a gallon. Putting 20 quids worth in takes mere seconds, and barely gets you to the next petrol station.

If you're from someplace where 9/10ths of a gallon costs about the same as a pair of bootlaces and the average household owns 3 motors with 6litre V8 engines then I'll thank you to keep your clever (if mis-spelt) pictures to yourself for the moment, or you and I might really fall out.

Not all of us are on such good terms with the world's major oil suppliers. Most of us don't have the necessary ordnance.

(If you don't like old threads don't read them. Everybody knows you'll be digging this old one up again to reply to this, ya total nonce.)

:lol: Whilst that probably made sense in your drunken mind you have no way of knowing a threads age until it is opened.

I'm sure that we will have a responce shortly after you wake up covered in your own vomit on your urine stained mattress. Nonce. :P

You were right on part of it though as I hold shares in an oil major and another organisation that's looking at shale oil. Perhaps that's why I don't know, look at or even care what the cost of petrol is now? Bigger things in life to worry about than how many pence extra it costs to fill a tank compared to last year... :whistle:
