Just think how lucky you were and did't pick up the petrol pump.
Yes but 45.97 litres at 1.999 pence per litre £91.89 paid, I won’t sleep for a chuffing week.
At least she'll be running "as sweet as a nut" Paul.
& there we are paying the equivalent of £1,27 for diesel here. So why is it so dear in the UK?
That was the air con service last year Jock but not much prior to that apart from yearly engine service and brake pads.At least she'll be running "as sweet as a nut" Paul.
Be honest, when was the last time you spent some dosh on the old girl, (and no, not Caroline, before some smart ar$e replies)?
Cheers,
Jock.
Constant rip off in the UK. £1.79 at our local Tesco.
Full price MOT eh!
That because of logistics, extra refining financial costs, higher salaries and staff pensions, increased maintenance on fuel tankers, increased demand or do I talk absolute crap and the main important reason is the acronym ROB.
Trust tax
No government subsidy for starters, like in Spain.
Those 3 years have gone quick. Aren't you changing it yet?Oh dear, at least you should get a bit of benefit from the diesel so long as you don't 'enjoy' the extra power its suppose to give you!
Our Carthago had it's first MOT on Tuesday, passed with no advisories. We took it to Endyke Tyre Mart about a mile from us as they've just started to do MOTs on motorhomes, the technician was a bit confused as he thought it needed a class 7 but hubby told him that I'd informed him it was a class 4 which the manager then confirmed - cost nearly £60 though which was 'painful'!
Filled up the car as soon as I heardHate to worry everyone, but brim up your MH to the top before November>
OPEC+ will be reducing its oil output by 2 million barrels a day, to stop prices falling as they did during Covid Shutdowns. Meanwhile The RAC are saying that our fuel should be cheaper, we are getting ripped off for sure.

OPEC+ to cut oil production by 2 million barrels per day to shore up prices, defying U.S. pressure
Oil prices have fallen to roughly $80 a barrel from more than $120 in early June amid growing fears about the prospect of a global economic recession.www.cnbc.com
Not much choice, cheapest was only £5 less and would have meant going a good few miles with me following hubby in the car so he can drop it off and we then would come back home, then do the reverse to pick up, by the time we'd pratted the time and fuel used wasn't worth it. Unfortunately we don't have a lot of garages that can do MOTs for a motorhome never mind ones over 3500kg.
Yup they have gone quick, although we didn't use it for 14 months (Feb 2020-April 2021) due to covid, a poorly dog and looking after my Mum.
See where you’re coming from but in the context of things it’s not too bad thinking about it. I knew it needed the handbrake cable but not the brake shoes.
£60 for an MOT? Yikes! My garage, North Birmingham Motors in Aldridge, part of Walsall, only charge the same as a car. We do have to be careful there as the clearance into the building is about an inch! Driving in and out has to be taken taken dead slow as there is a slight uplift in the floor just inside.Oh dear, at least you should get a bit of benefit from the diesel so long as you don't 'enjoy' the extra power its suppose to give you!
