Oh, Adhams Broadside.

Always wondered why my Dad was keen on us going to Southwold for our holidays when I was a nipper... and why he kept nipping off to the pub.

[omega3000]

This was about the same time that road tax was £25 across the board.

[Lizzie_Zoom]

£1.229 at Sainsbury's now, minus another 8p off per litre to £1.149 due to a loyalty spend voucher!

Bloody great!

Wouldn't you rather buy your petrol from Tesco, Lizzie.?....

[cleggy]

You realise the real price when it comes by the gallon, I've just filled the can for the mower £7.80
I also remember when it was five bob a gallon when four passengers would each give the driver a quid for travelling to nights out all over the country. It paid his petrol for the week and a free night out happy days but that's another old Mod's story

[chrisgixer]

Do you remember the uproar when it went over £1 a litre?


Although seriously, I won't be happy with petrol prices until it's within 10p of lpg. Only then will the tank come out of the boot.

....and even if that happens, which it won't, it will be ready to go back in a week later no doubt

[Andy B]

...

I remember the anguish and horror when it was approaching 10/- (50p) a gallon!

[Andy B]

...
I remember the anguish and horror when it was approaching 10/- (50p) a gallon!

The cheapest fuel I remember my Dad putting in the car was 33 pence per gallon!

Roughly 6/6 in the old money.

[Jusme]

The cheapest fuel I remember my Dad putting in the car was 33 pence per gallon! Oh dear!! Used to fill my mini up for a quid at the local Jet garage... 3s.9d a gallon. 

[Varche]

I have been consuming tankfuls of diesel like it is going out of fashion whilst helping out in Scotland with a sick aunt.

Here is a question.

UK unleaded 125 diesel 129

Spain 126 diesel unleaded 145

Who is being taken for a ride in which country?

[chrisgixer]

Spain's economy is still struggling by all accounts. Not likely to see any price cuts there ant time soon.

Arguably, forcourt prices are bad for independents here. So not ideal either.


Ideal.... Quite a small word. So difficult to achieve.

[amazonian]

1961,  4 gallons of petrol and 20 fags, = a few coppers change from £1.
Same year I bought a 3 year old Vauxhall Velox for £150.

Oh happy days !

Come on Andy, you were a LSD Child, as was I and I seem to remember around 3/6 a gallon..........

Chris. You are right about Spains economy. However the price drops in Spain as soon as world oil prices drop. In Britain it only drops when the supermarkets choose. My point is there is a huge relative difference between diesel and petrol

[05omegav6]

Aren't about 95% of vehicles in Spain diesel fuelled though in which case, economies of scale come into play...

[chrisgixer]

That being the case, I'm sure if lpg was most popular here, it would be the most expensive. ....however unlikely.

[05omegav6]

Does rather depend on the organ grinder

[Kevin Wood]

So trains and lorries are better off in Spain.

To enjoy the roads there, proper fuel is required.

According to the media current low crude prices are hurting the Russian Rouble.

Is this the stick to bash Putin with or will OPEC hit the brakes on their current production output.

He`s playing some odd games with incursions into UK airspace & I read somewhere that elements of the  Russian Navy steamed thru the channel over the weekend.

Any chance of hitting  £112/ litre for standard unleaded by Chrismas

If this is America's way of having a pop at Putin,by making crude prices,plummet then please carry on,only down side is crude oil prices control a lot of the world stock markets,and the banks buy and sell oil to make profits. Playing with fire.But I like cheap fuel.

[the alarming man]

don't want petrol to go too cheap or the oppsers will put their fair fuel tax on it (or what ever they call it now)

[Sir Tigger KC]

What will be interesting will be the direction of gas and electricity prices this year.  My bet is that while they may not go up, they certainly won't go down in case we have a Labour government next May. 

Labour have of course promised to freeze energy prices if they get in a the next election.
