Got a shock today
Filled up on V-Power today... I never really look at the price... I just open her up and fill her! But today, whilst filling, glimpsed at the price and boy did I get a shock!! £1.19 per litre! Scandalous!!
I remember when I first got the wrx last year and envied my mates who paid less than 90p for their normal unleaded, whilst I had to fill up almost a pound of Optimax! That seems so cheap now looking back on that.
Normal unleaded is now £1.07!!
How much you guys paying for your V-Power fix?

I cant remember the last time I looked but I think it was about 109.
As I only bring the Impreza out roughly once a week I chuck 20 quid in each time.
I fill up the diesel (pug 106) with about 20-30 quid a week but get nearly 300-350 miles out of that. But thats 116. plus per litre.
I remember the same garage selling unleaded for 73 per litre roughly 3 years ago.
There is a disused garage a couple of miles out of my local town that only recently took down all its signs etc. On the board that advertised the price of fuel, petrol was on there for less than 60p per litre.
The garage shut about 8 years ago.

Been a lot of threads like this recently seems like most of us are pretty p*ssed at having to pay so much for fuel especially as 81% of it is tax Can we really do anything to force it down though? Seems like we can't really so Scoob may have to turn into a weekend car with some ancient old diesel being used as the daily runner ... that'll be good for the environment then
