Haven't seen it that low anywhere around here. Cheapest is around 117.99.

Having checked out petrol prices within my post code area at petrolprices.com it's interesting to see that Tesco's in one area is selling at 117.99 but 8 miles away they are selling at 111.99. How the break does that work?!! Surely Tesco's pay for their fuel on a national basis so how the hell do they justify a 6p per litre difference from one branch to another.

I bet we will never see it go below a £1 a litre ever again

[JamesV6CDX]

With petrol at £117.9p a litre, and an Omega V6 that averages 28 miles per gallon mixed driving, that's 19.41p a mile.

Therefore 500 miles mixed driving, 97.05

On a run, at 35mpg, this cost drops to 15.31p per mile, which means you can do 500 miles for
£76.55

While not great, it's Still not really bank breaking, for V6 motoring!

...and in comfort too -- at the end of the 500 mile run you should still be able to straighen out and walk

What is this "petrol" of which you speak? :-/

Oh, you mean "starting aid", of which I've used about 2 litres in the last 500 miles.

12.5 p a mile at the moment from my V6 doing 5m trips to the tip with trailer behind, a trip to WIM and quite a bit of "testing" the performance on LPG. That's on forecourt rip off LPG too.

It is when you do 700 + miles a week

Im now thinking there was a sense of logic in Bimbo/swmbos Renault choice.

She has a car that runs to 60 in less than 7 seconds, is cheap to run and is currently showing average consumption around town - from a 2.0litre -  of 42.1MPG  

But then again its FWD,French, Small and Plastic, nah thanks but i`ll continue to pay for V6 Consumption

Tax on the mig runs out end of august,if i havent found a half decent job by then,i will probably mothball the mig and put the diesel mondeo on the road. (oh the shame).
