Title: Vx oil price rise
Post by: Marks DTM Calib on 15 July 2008, 09:51:22
Very surprised this has not happened before given the price of crude oil!

Anyway, just had formal confirmation that as of next week the oil price will be going up by 14%.

To be expected Mark in the current financial climate I suppose, but it does not make any less troubling! :'( :'( :'(

Even with the increase it will still be cheap compared to alternative (non- TC) sources.

Just had a letter from the local dealer, they're giving an extra 10% off Trade Club prices during July and August.

That's very good, but ,Damn, AutoAddict Birmingham is a long way off for me! :(  Is your local dealer part of a national chain do you know? :-?

Just read it properly, applies to one order only placed before the end of August 2008, and excludes oil.

Seems to apply to everything else though.
