davegtt

still only at 89.9 for Optimax at my local place... 95UL is 83.9

Wonder when and where we'll see over a pound a litre first?

wez_sti

Well only 0.1p to go for me! it'll have to be in the South-East i'd imagine...

paul-s

its been over a pound at a couple of garages around the london area before i think. around the time of the last fuel protests

little miss fire

It's meant to be £103.9 in our local garage, but the pump price can't handle 3 figures and a decimal place, so it's 99.9p!!!!

D70

I'm paying 99.9/ltr as well for 98 Ron SUL. However that's 99.9 euro cents or about 67 UK pence.

When I see threads like this it reminds me of just what an overtaxed sh1thole the UK really is.

Get out or get ripped.

BARSTEWARD!!!

A tip for all of those who are finding that keeping their Scooby full of Optimax (scoobysnacks) is leaving them with no money for beer:

When filling up your Scooby, inhale the petrol fumes, cheap high and you won't need to drink. You might wanna leave the car on the forecourt for a while after though!!

Disclaimer to cover my own *** and that of SN:

Please don't do the above!!!........ you haven't been mapped for 98.5 RON and may end up detting, OK??

Been filling up my bike with BP ultimate for a couple of months now, current price 92.9p/l got caught out the other day and ended up and sainsburys suddenly discovered they do SUL and at 83.9p/l guess where I am buying now.

Well ticked off at how much I could have saved if I didnt use BP for the past couple of months

I came to this thread expecting news of some company launching a higher octane fuel.

Thread does not deliver

same here

I don't understand when I hear comments like this. I live in Spain (as I think does D70). But considering that the average wage over here is 15,000 Euros, it makes the petrol really expensive for the Spanish people. It seems to me it is the Spanish who are getting a worse deal than the Brits.

87.9p in Poole, was 89.9 two weeks ago onder2:

D70

I had no idea they were paid so badly, most of my colleagues are in the 60-100 thousand Euro pay range and my Spanish isn't good enough to talk properly to those who work on the lower rungs of the ladder.

However the comment still stands as the fuel is taxed proportionally lower despite being expensive for the low paid. In addition to this most people who CAN get out of the UK earn a decent wedge anyway. By getting out they can exploit a country where the cost of living (and thus wages) is lower.

I was surprised too about the salaries here. I read it in the paper a few weeks ago. You are right that foreigners living here have it better, and also income tax is lower.
Whereabouts are you in Spain?

D70

Between San Sebastian and Bilbao, really beautiful but all the ETA murals remind me a little of sectarian Northern Ireland.
Much prefer Spain to France where I was before the cuisine, attitude and lifestyle of Espagna makes the grenouilles look rather sad.

I think emigration is on the cards. I'm getting seriously annoyed with the UK atm. I'm not going to leave just yet, I think I will go onto benefits first, just to let them know how annoyed I am.

Round here it really does seem that you are better off when you do not work

About 70 pence per litre over here in ze fazerland.
