Todays prices in France based on todays exchange rate of £1 = €1.187 are:-

SP 95 £1.204

Diesel £1.025

GPL £0.615
 
We get raped on fuel. My RRC does 220 miles to a tank and took 62 litres to fill up last night, so that's 16mpg. But at todays prices, those 220 miles cost me £78!!!!

As a comparison, my mates Dad lives in Dubai and runs two RR's (a P38s and an L322) among others, and they can fill them up for £25. Gutting!!
 
Just filled the P38 up £103.00:doh: If that ain't bad enough, had one of those weeks all London traffic and a lot of cold starts so it only covered 204 miles:eek: That equates to 11.17mpg

If those BMW Dervs weren't such a crock of s##t I'd be in one by now :pop2:
 
that would be a 12gallon tank then. or 50ltrs

Cos it's currently over £6 a gallon.

And for the poster asking us to join the facebook page. FFS wake up and give ya self a fooking dose odf reality. Big Business dun't give a **** about FB or the publics point of view.
 
YOUR DESTINY IS IN YOUR OWN HANDS!!!!!

Stop moaning about fuel price, think it through and you'll realise there's basically 2 ways to reduce your spend on fuel:

1. Don't use your car so much
2. Get better fuel economy
 
just filled t 38 tonight here on the emerald isle 1.35.9 , thats 98 euro to fill her and 366 miles since the last fill :doh:

They would make a fortune in fines for obstructing the roads. It's illegal to make a spontanious protest in this country or have you not noticed. Unless you tell the authorities when and where and get permission it is illegal.
