Did a run from Sussex to just just north of Perth a month or so back for some Salmon Fishing and had to put in almost a hundred quids worth of LPG in each direction...dread to think how much that would have been in unleaded

Recently 'learned up' and being more careful now, honestly.

I have just come back from a weekend in Warrington and done exactly 454 miles from starting with a full tank, just filled up again in tesco... £77 for 60 litres. The cost of fuel is really starting to hurt now  >:(

Just bought a Peugeot 205 diesel for my son - I'll be using it whenever he doesn't need it!  Don't know what the consumption figures are, but I don't think I filled the last one up more than about 3 times in the year we had it.

I travel 25 miles to work, but I car pool with 3 others.  It's about 3 miles to where we meet, and I think I use just about the same amount of petrol on days when I'm not the main driver as when I am.  The Omega is very, very thirsty for 3 mile journeys!  So it's the Peugeot from now on when I'm not the designated driver.

Always assuming I can get it away from the brat...
