Mook Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Doubtless the chancellor will be taking some more beans out of the pockets of all those evil, nasty people with (oh feck, dont say it!) C-A-R-S So don't forget to fill up tonight or first thing in the morning Fill up with £30 of Optimax petrol or diesel at a Shell station and get a FREE model Ferrari car worth, wait for it, £1.99. WOW! OK, so Mook Jnr's already got three of the things and he'll get another one tomorrow. And they only started giving them away last week...

Cuprabob Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Me too, by the beginning of May when they stop handing them out my house will look like a toy shop and I don't even have kids (not that I'm aware of... ) but you can't turn down something for "nothing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean_H Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 [ QUOTE ] My local Shell garage is selling diesel for £114.9 so is this going up by 2p more tomorrow? [/ QUOTE ] That's bl00dy expensive diesel mate... do they refine it themselves on the premises, and for that amount I'd be expecting something off a real ferrari rather than just a model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelson_R32 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Blimey, I thought prices were bad enough today. I've just paid £53.00 for 46 litres of Optimax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S3ENVY Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 [ QUOTE ] You just missed my last post S3_ENVY [/ QUOTE ] I filled up yesterday, car took 29.1 litres as it was half empty and the bugger wouldn't give me an Enzo, despite me asking for one and the £££'s I give them every month. ....might complain.

sidicks Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I had planned to go out tonight to fill up my car and my wife's car, but as they are both currently more than half-full, then we'd only be saving maybe 60 litres at 2p per litre so a total of £1.20. My local shell garage is 4 miles away, so 16 miles in total (for both cars), which would cost more than £1.20 !! I bet it's busy out there tonight?!

Muppetboy Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Long queues at my local Shell, had forgotten about tomorrow. The guy said "take a car on the way out", then called out to say "only take one", WTF? Just cos I drive a GTI doesn't make me a thieving chav innit?

[/ QUOTE ] I believe it is, but at £114 per litre that's gotta be some refining... seeing the price of WTI hit close to $110 a barrel earlier today on Bloomberg before the FED announcement, I reckon you could be better off chartering a ship and trying it yourself!
