Yes, indeed. What everyone needs is a 1.6L engine. :)

It was eye watering enough filling both cars this week..

£85 to fill the Omega with UL at Sainsbury (cheapest place around here) - 131.9
£54 to fill the MR2 with Optimax, because Sainsbury have "No Super Unleaded until further notice" - 141.9

Good job the MR2 gets >31mpg, nearly twice what the Omega gets!

I wouldnt be sure , if the price of oil doubles a couple of times (because of wars, terorism, production drop etc etc), we will all be pedalling ;D ;D ;D

but not that bad, all of us will loose some weight ;D
