Rudiger All round good guy! Lifetime Members 1,122 Member For: 16y 8m 3d Gender: Male Location: Greenvale, Victoria Posted 09/03/11 11:32 AM Share Posted 09/03/11 11:32 AM Well the straw that broke the camels back arrived the other day....via bloody petrol prices.98 - $1.62 per litre. Absolutely laughable.So I have made a concious decision to drive my car less. So I have jumped into my daughters 93 Mazda 626. I filled it yesterday and it still has half a tank. Drives like a dream too.The only upside is when I get in the Turb again, it will be like I've just had it modded and will scare the bejeesus out of me.But seriously, that is just too much. I'll probably have to buy myself a little fart box for work I think. Just too expensive to have fun anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on guys every 10 cents a litre is only $6.80 a tank 20 cents is $13.60. Just be glad you don't live in Europe. These things are like racehorses, they cost a lot to stable and feed, and gas is going to go a lot further north before it comes south again .
