Fuel prices!! NOT moaning (for once!)

£1/litre in sight, apparently.

And I drive a Diseasel!!  >:(

Right, I need to get the V6 fixed quick!! A rather nice full-circle thing, when she was laid up petrol was about 97p/litre, be great if the next time she gets filled up, it is with fuel at the same price  :y :y

It is indeed!

The only bit about the Turbo Weasel I like is when I'm at the lights next to pretty much anything, they see an old blue car, lathered in dust and bird effluence, a huge ding in the rear wing, sellotaped on door mirror, and three styles of alloy wheel... I make sure I'm in Sport mode, in D ready, and soon as the lights hit amber, floor the noisy pedal. Nothing happens, and it pulls away almost sedately... we're nose-to-nose for approx 1 second, then the turbo kicks in and after a few seconds there's just an ever-shrinking car in my back window.  8)

Well, I would see one, were my rear window not covered in ground-in muck, hehe  :y :y :y

Great that fuel prices are so low. However enjoy it now as even if they continue low, there will be a price to pay elsewhere. Government tax revenues from fuel are lower, Green energy now looks very expensive to name but two.

106.9 petrol, 113.9 diesel at Bletchley Tesco earlier.

I wonder how much discount her clubcard has this month?  I bet that will make diesel for the battlebus under £1
