At my last fill-up at my local BP station I paid $2.88 for some Hi test, which to me is a bit of a break from the $3.65 of a couple months ago.

What are the prices like in your area?

'Bout $2.79 for Premium :drive:

This brings up a question I have. After Bbuying an 02 disco then pulling up to fill the tank i realized it calls for Premium on the fuel door. Wasn't expecting that. Any Disco II owners have any experience running midgrade or regular?

Not sure about the DIIs, but my DI runs like ass on anything other than Premium, and it definitely doesn't like ethanol mixtures.

Diesel is around where I live is about $7.50 to $7.70 dependant on the supplier

Only $2.33/gal for premium here in Louisville,KY.

:complain: :complain:


But that's only £1.33 a gallon!!!!!!!

And you're complaining!!!!

Its more like $8.50 a gallon down south - and no jokes about southerners!

Thats allowing for an exchange rate of $1.85 to the £.

Hell no I'm not complaining about that price! Just the opposite. Now if I had to pay UK prices.....then I would be complaining. You guys are getting robbed. Maybe we chould send old Georgie boy over to your country for awhile, it would get him out of our hair and maybe he would lower the petrol prices for you. Sound like a deal?

 

[Buckle]

I should explain - I bought the lightweight in good faith and it is registered as a 1966 vehicle. And yes I know they didn't start making them until 1968. And no it isn't some unheard of leaked out prototype - its actually a series 3. But it has the right words on the V5 and the right letter on the registration plate :clap:

Result :drink1:

No we've got enough putting up with his pet Poodle (sorry, our Prime Minister)

Fair enough, but I'd still be a bit wary if any knowledgable Bobby starts looking it over, re; tax exemption status

I had a 1969 2A Light-Weight, but mine was registered on release as a 'W'. I didn'thave it long so never sorted out any exemption for it.

Quite and when he went over the pond he sent back again!

Knowledgable Bobby?!?! Are there any? or do you only get them oop north?
I just know thats going to spark off the southerner jokes............

Is'nt there a secret under ground pipe line from Northern Mosul to the U.K?

Does yours call for premium? i run mine on regular 24/7 and its fine...? my fuel door nor dash have anything stating premium? just unleaded

 

[macdon2000]

I'd rather pay $8.24 thanks!

 

[OkieRover]

Just so we get a good benchmark.

87 Octane was 1.99 today in Oklahoma.

 

[bobbyboy]

gas pains....

Price of regular Can. gallon of gas runs about 3.90 canuck bucks today in Toronto Ontario and environs. A bargain for a Vespa, but a bitch for my 4X4.

Premium is finally down to around $2.90 a gallon here in the San Francisco Bay Area... which is still high compared to most parts of the US, but better than any part of Europe...

 

[oberdahill]

It's about 1.35 Euro a liter on the economy. Exchange rate equals about $1.65 USD for premium. At 3.3 liters to a US gallon, that's $5.44 a gallon. I fuel on the post at $2.90 per gallon. The military tries to keep up with the average continent scale, but the cost of living allowance is being dropped by $300 per month in January. We gotta pay for the war somehow...
