Title: Cheeky Fcukers
Post by: vRS Carl on August 10, 2011, 08:04:52 pm
Went to fill up today whilst on my travels and saw this Price anomaly  :surprised: :surprised:

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fww275%2FTaufe%2F2011-08-10at10-50-58.jpg&hash=0f190ae7724914bc84f1b8447c7787f23fe5c3e9)

This was the only garage i have been to (and i've been to a fair few) that charges 11p per litre more for V-Power :fighting: :fighting: The difference is normally only 7p/litre

It was still 2p/litre cheaper than my local but i was gobsmacked that they were charging so much.

Wankers :fighting:

I've got to admit, premium fuel has gone nowhere near my car recently.

Yeah - apparently 2p coming off this week?

Asda around here are a clear 2p+ cheaper than the competitors. Rest to follow tomorrow apparently. Still not enough of a drop to make a difference unfortunately   :sad1:

Mines mapped for 99 only. Stutters on anything but v-power. Doesn't even like tesco momentum as I found out last month. It's a good job a tank lasts me 4-6 weeks:)

It only gets used for pleasure. Use my bike and the other halfs cooper diesel for the boring miles. 540 miles to £46 of diesel pleases me far more than it should  :laugh:

Must admit being drawn to the long geared, eco warrior type pull of a Polo Bluemotion these days given the price of super unleaded especially the V Power.

Think it's probably the way forward as fuel will never get cheap again will it.

Still I'm not getting rid of the Ed30, so it may be a two car future down the line.
Guess that's not exactly saving the planet or saving money is it really running two cars...

Ouch, I only use sainsburys really at the moment can pick up their 97ron for mid 130's. Will step up to v power once mapped though :(

I heard recently that petrol stations are going to be showing porn on little screens at the pumps

So we can watch someone else get fcuked while we fill up  :signLOL:

I filled up yesterday with V Power in Hastings and it was 141.9.. Normally its about 142.9 in Barking or Gravesend

Worst one was on the M1 go to Inters think it was 147.9

£1.41.9 is dirt cheap for V-Power :happy2:

I paid £1.41 for V-power in Manchester last week... however, Tesco momentum 99 RON was £1.36 which was a bit of a surprise as its usually only slightly cheaper than V-power.....
