old tup   30 #1 Posted December 8, 2018 Quote Has anybody noticed how the greedy oil companies have hiked up the price of diesel?.It is now 10pence per litre more than petrol,55pence a gallon more!.Not bad profit for a byproduct of petrol production!,any excuse will do to rip off GB motorists,when wholesale prices of oil go up fuel prices shoot up like a rocket the same night!.When the wholesale price drops fuel prices float down like a feather in small increments of a few pence over a long period of time until the AA or RAC kick off about it or the supermarkets start a price war!.I have had several diesel cars since 1987 at which time diesel was 37pence a gallon cheaper than petrol,how do they get away with it?,rip off Britain again in my opinion!  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Fuel prices are still nowhere near the highs of £1.50 per litre and if you shop around you can still get diesel pretty cheaply. I recently filled up at £1.24 per litre.

Nearest Petrol equivalent to my diesel kicks out 20g/km MORE CO2, has 10bhp less & does mores than 15mpg LESS.  So go on, tell me how petrol is better than diesel..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
