I used to be able to fill my little 4 cylinder Honda Civic with $30 about a year ago now $50 doesn’t fill the tank…

@ absortion: 1.10 pounds per litre, wow that’s expensive, although I think the average wage in England is a lot higher than here, still though that’s harsh…

BTW, where the hell is the little pound symbol on my keyboard :P

:)

Yeah but also don't forget the 5c p/litre that the companies add too make more money
If only I knew what I should put here

the bit that annoys me is the fact that (in the UK) they charge VAT ontop of the tax on fuel. wtf.

on a side note, anyone else noticed that the guy who made this thread is advertising in his signature? :P

Obviously the government takes that into account when setting the tax on fuel in the first place.

The UK VAT rules are really annoying.
Why is our VAT so high compared to others.
Grrr

Shit. $4.00 already? Used to be like $3 when I was there.
You're still breathing? Why?

I paid 117.9 this morning for a litre

Funny to think only a year ago I was paying 99p a litre.

And there was me thinking we went to war for oil...

It's not a horrible country, it's just a horrible president. I love Venezuela.. and I'll probably come back to live here in the future.
