Ah, 1996 good year that was, probably the same year Gov decided we were buying too many diesel cars so we could save some dosh on that motoring thingy.

Derv is the seminal juice of the devil. Petrol for me unless I decide to buy a bus or a lorry.

Must be paying more then the whole of europe, must be dearer then France & Spain. I demand a refund & if I hear, that in real terms we`re paying less for our fuel now then 10 years ago

I`m gonna kick the pump harder next time I fill up.

Last tank of diesel I bought a few days ago in Spain was 1.08 euros a litre. Average is about 1.12

There was a time when if it was 1.40 pounds in Britain it was 1.40 euros here. Of course you now get many more euros than say twelve months ago for your mighty pound!

Vamps · « **Reply #12 on:** 29 July 2015, 23:46:42 »

Filled up yesturday at 113p, at Sainsbury's.............

But I`m thinking your equvilant to VED is higher

Varche · « **Reply #14 on:** 30 July 2015, 10:10:33 »

'Fraid not. Here local councils set the levels so there is a small bit of variation between areas. I pay 146 euros a year for a 90BHP diesel 2.0Hdi. The V6 Omega used to be 154 euros.

It will change, the new emission regs for ships is forcing to consume diesel in certain parts of the plant (including the EU) which will push up diesel demand

I don't mind cheaper diesel prices but they could have done it before I filled mine up

Crazycarzowner · « **Reply #17 on:** 30 July 2015, 22:23:24 »
