This looks dodgy if you ask me, what better time to run a scam on such an essential resource, beside's I thought it was TAX that made petrol expensive, not luxurious style stations where you get a free neck massage with every £6 of super unleaded or a collectable crystal set.

Surely you can only order enough to fill your car/car's each time, or the 20,000 litre tank we all have sank in our driveway.

Having heard about the amount of Katrina related web site's where you can make a donation ????? that are now operating. And lets face it it's not hard to put a site together in a matter of hours, the clues in the details, if this company were real then they really would not be using a bp rip off logo...

If it's not real of course i'll no doubt be receiving my free fuel allowance thru the letter box along with my complimentry "light themselves match's" following shortly afterwards...

Just read it... very funny.

Very very funny... don't i look a pillock?

What happens if you order Vin Diesel? Like the idea of the crystals though

Would probably be cheaper than optimax at the moment!!! Think you could sort a group buy or summat? Put me down for a case of plutonium depending what grade it is, I would steer clear of that anti-matter though heard it can cause probs with the MAF

I'd be interested to see the results when somebody orders and petrol is prohibited by Royal Mail incidently. This has to be either a spoof or a con.

My god, how slow witted some people on here are

I think I'll e-mail them and ask them to add "Scooby drivers" to this paragraph:

Just in case you are an American, or possibly drive a car made by Suzuki, we will spell the purpose of Petrol Direct out to you in simple terms. This is a spoof. A parody. We do not sell petrol or any other fuels, and certainly not plutonium or antimatter. Sorry.

I've put my order in, I've paid via credit card, I've supplied my address ..........

and it says theres a problem with the ordering??

Are they overloaded with orders and it's slowing their servers down, do you think?

Vin Diesel is a very entertaining actor, not a biofuel.
Not too sure if they're on legally solid ground there.
