Stop f*****g complaining. 50 litres of 95 octane would cost Â£50+ in this country

Ditto.

This UK site is the wrong place to complain about petrol prices.

i would be more bothered also about not being able to run my gti on the 99 ron Shell V-Power i always have done

costs me Â£54 to tank my little dub now, was only Â£46 when i first got it, bloody inflation, but that still only lasts the same 250 - 280 miles haha, but god its a great 250 - 280 miles haha

when your fuel prices hits 113.9 (GBÂ£) a litre, then ill feel for you

I'm having an easy driving tank in the TDI, I want to get above the magic 500! Filling it up usually costs about Â£40-Â£45
