Just curious.  |

Damn. I never even thought about it. But rest assured when the missus gets home from the out-laws place i'll be giving it a red hot go.
I'd get her to time it from the passenger seat, but she'd probably add un-necessary weight. (just in case she ends up reading this. i'm not implying that your over weight, babe. i just need as little weight as possible if i'm gonna test it) |

Yeh, I paid $1.47/litre for Optimax Extreme.The 100RON gives me a little better economy than 98RON. Bottom line is, it costs the same, if not a little cheaper for me to buy $1.47/litre fuel than $1.40/litre fuel at the end of the week.

Stop your whinging
Standard Unleaded hasnt been under 1.43 here for 2 months and is currently sitting at 1.45 a litre Im sure the fact Israel and Lebenon are bombing the crap outta each other will be good for at least another 5c a litre. Strangly enuff our prices are supposed to be governed by Singapore and we are closer to them than the lot of u guys and our prices are higher Figure that one out. Its costing me at least $ 100 to fill the Territory Looking forward to getting the Fez we might save some money. Kroc

I regularly pay over 1.50 per litre of 98ron.
And BTW 50kg will add 0.2seconds to your 1/4mile time in a fez

Pieoter, you should try filling up Tuesday morning or something. Averagely 98RON fuel would cost around $1.40-$1.42/litre.

The petrol station here was at $1.31 for normal unleaded, so I guess 98 would be $1.41.

Yeah usually Tuesday or early morning Wednesday is where petrol prices are at their best. Paid $1.47/litre for Optimax Extreme (100RON + 5% EtOH) on Wednesday morning on the way to work. Driving home from work I saw normal ULP $1.45/litre.

A mystery!
Payed 134.9 for Mobil Premium in Bundy, QLD - that's 95? I spose the ECU is calibrating still (1300k), or whatever, but I (think I) notice the Mobil stuff giving me a little more zip. (I like brackets )

The "buy petrol on this day" things are all BS. They just average the price over the entire year and go wow! there is a trend here! all bcause there is a slight dip on that day...
I work in a servo and after 3 years of doing so can positively state that I have never discovered any pattern other than the fact it jumps up quick and comes down gradually. I paid 1.12 a litre for premium the other day too just to **** everyone off ;p

Well well.... what have we got here? Barinnnnnna...
 Anyways... see the turn where that Falcon XT/Futura is?... in rainy days there are plenty of try-hards that "drift" through the corner and ultimately crashed onto the car in front of the Kalos. So, on rainy days i'd sit on the middle lane.. :hihi: |
