LOL - depends where you buy it. Jersey was 1.33 p/l whereas england is 1.90ish a litre depending on your local airfield. no traffic lights or congestion charges though!! And my plane burns 35litres an hour at 125kts.

Yes but does it have a lovely burble sound and how much shopping can you get in the back


Dunx when yours is finished we should go drive past Lee's house a few times to remind him what hes missing.

Hope your well Lee
