£51.78 to fill the *ucker up!

[black kro]

52 litres D @ 99.9

even @ 60mpg, that's over a grand a year on diesel ......... :-(

"Double Yoiks" as Shaggy would say

 

[Pete]

Wish I spent less than 3 grand a year on fuel.

 

[Rich]

[steve740]

Ignorance is bliss as they say!

[Fred@BTM]

[JR]

£43 from emply ( light on ) in my 172 thats at 79.9 for sainsburys super.

was under £38 when i bought the car in feb lol.

 

[RobTQ]

Where the heck can you get Siansbury's SUL for 79.9. Its 99.9 at my local Sainsburys for SUL for 98.9 for normal unleaded.

 

[Martin_172]

put £45 of Optimax in yesterday and it still wasnt full (well the guage was right off the scale but it didnt click off)

usually lasts me 5 days but im driving super granny like this week as ive got £0 left untill payday in 9 days lol

 

[Ryan]

Why Optimax Martin?

 

[MikeC]

Costs me £55 for a full tank using Optimax on my beemer

 

[DynamiqueDebz]

Fuel prices are indeed getting ridiculous! I remember when I first got my baby 3 years ago, £10 would take her to 1/2 a tank, now £20 won't even do that! I do agree that no matter how much the prices rise, we will ALL pay it as we need it! Does anyone remember when most of the garages closed, when the tanker drivers refused to deliver fuel because of rising costs? The garages that did actually manage to get fuel were only allowing £10 per customer, and only stayed open for about 3 hours. Other garages were only letting people who had emergency cards (nurses, doctors etc) to fill up. Remember that??

 

[Chad]

I remember when it used to cost a tenner to fill up my old Mini and I'm not that old (30).

 

[Martin_172]

Why Optimax Martin?

runs a bit better. idles funny with normal stuff (possibly because the ecu is used to optimax?) plus if it really is better for your engine, id say its worth it

 

[Gary-Lew]

last year i ran an alfa 3.0gtv for 19,000miles, average of 19-20mpg always run on optimax now thats heartbreaking!

 

[black kro]

I drove past garage after garage of queues during the last strike and eventually wimped out after 105 miles on

Orange light - 798 miles!

 

[DynamiqueDebz]

Yep, Hubby and I did the same thing. I didn't want to drive too far though as I needed the fuel for work. I actually managed to get some really early one morning which kept me going until the strike was over. Thank God I only had my 1.4 clio at the time though, as my 1.6 would have killed the fuel I put in it in no time at all! lol

 

[steveV6]

£51.78 - pah!!!!!!!

You want to try £80+ for a full tank running @ around 25-28 mpg!!!

 

[Clio 1.216v Dynamique]

£51.78 - pah!!!!!!!

You want to try £80+ for a full tank running @ around 25-28 mpg!!!

You wanna try £75+ for my dads Laguna 3.0i v6 24v

 

[cliobritt]

Driving like a granny.

 

[steveV6]

You wanna try £75+ for my dads Laguna 3.0i v6 24v

The £80+ is for my 3.0L V6 DCi Espace - running a very nice superchip

 

[steveV6]

And then there is the Vee to run too

 

[steveV6]

Lucky I got myself a 1.2 really, lol:approve:

That keeps the petrol costs down

 

[Clio 1.216v Dynamique]

The £80+ is for my 3.0L V6 DCi Espace - running a very nice superchip

0.60 etc

 

[Adamhodg]

i tend to run mine to completely empty(well almost) then fill it up right to the brim. think the last tank cost £45. :dapprove:

 

[Clio 1.216v Dynamique]

True 1.2 Dynamiques, petrol lasts ages in mine!!! great economical motor

 

[steveV6]

Whats BHP as that got?
0.60 etc

184 bhp standard - now approx 220 bhp.

I not sure of 0-60 but its tooooo quick for a bus lol, always manage to upset a few people:approve:

Ask TomS what he thought of it - took him out for a spin in it the other weekend - think he was a little shocked to say the least!

 

[Cupster]

When I bought my first cup back in 2002 I could fill it up for £26!! lol f**king joke

 

[Danith]

u m1ngebag . even my 172 isnt as harsh as my 328 was. a £10 would get me 40 miles (50 absolute tops) in that. dont wanna know how much i spent on petrol on that. i did 17000 in a year and half in it

 

[Fred@BTM]

i'm running the Vee on normal tescos these days its too expensive to use funny stuff

 

[fizzy_drink]

Over £6k on fuel last year.... heartbreaking or what!
