Yeah I know its a bit early for some but my local BP had their cheap fuel day again so @ £1.36•9 a litre I though it would be rude not to oh and for all you pervs out there it was £1.30•9.
Is this one of the cheapest fuel prices in the UK at the moment?
is it possible to re-set my fuel gauge? as it doesn't read full when brimmed - the needle is in the middle to lower part of the white section of the full mark piccy:

none of them go all the way to the top of the gauge. dont move the needle because then yu will be running out at the beginning of the red!
That is cheap actually. Wish it was that cheap here! We get 3p off a litre on our fuel cards but not allowed to use them on our own cars

Mine goes right to the top. 
The one in the NAD never got further than 3/4s though lol. It's to do with the contacts wearing out on the level sensor I think.

The fuel gauge is a pertol diesel thing. Petrols never seem to go to the top whereas diesels seem to go just off the top of the gauge. I guess its cos petrol is thinner than diesel so the float floats lower than in diesel.
Im gonna fill up when I get my car back from Kris. 17.99 for 20L of veg from Costco

As if being built in Britain was ever a sign of a reliable motor.

I paid £1.28.9 last week.
10p off a liter voucher FTW!
Typically costs me £73-75 to fill the tank though, which sucks.

You put how much Diesel in a veg car??
40L of veg, 2 litres of petrol in mine and it starts like a champ.
