Paid $1.719

Paid One dollar seventy one point nine for petrol today. Who's going to pick the date for $2.00 a litre?

My pick is - if and when the world wide economy picks up and demand increases, plus middle Eastern oil producing countries moving away from USA aligned puppet status to semi autonomy -

this time next year.

In Germany we are already over $2 USd per liter. German gas stations are charging €1.77 for a liter of SuperPlus 98 RON. I think once summer hits we will be paying a lot more than two euros for fuel.

That F30 320d @ 4.5L/100km is starting to look attractive.... Of course whether it actually achieves that IRL is another question.

Then averaged 7.5/100 for the trip.

Happy Tay!

Do they have any reason or just GP weekend?

The GP weekend is affecting a little plus the Easter week upcoming soon, not sure how crazy the prices will soar

Got to be gentle on my throttle to keep fuel consumption down.

Where do you guys fill up? I paid $1.629 last night in North Perth.

The 135i is not too easy on the fuel, only got 230kms from the last tank before the warning light came on.
