Cheap Fuel

Recommended Posts

On average you get about 10-15% fewer miles to the gallon with LPG, but even at UK prices the savings are substantial if you drive a lot.

Hah.... I didn't mean to refer to the slight drop in MPG when going from Petrol to LPG, more the MPG that a Rover 3.5/3.9 V8 returns is just horrendous. So running it on LPG might help your wallet slightly, but it still isn't going to be cheaper to run a Rangie on LPG than it is to run something more 'conventional'. ;-)

It appears that this Pipeline card is not a con or spam after all!

 

I got an email a couple of weeks ago stating that they got their 100,000 person signed up, and that they could start negotiations with the fuel companies. I still thought at this time, no harm done so far, wait and see.

I still haven't got my card but whilst watching 'Richard Hammonds 5 O'Clock Show' this evening, (I know I'm a sad git! :o ) he had his weekly financial advisor on giving out advice, and that guy advised to sign up for the Pipeline card soon, so that you could get up to 5p - 10p a litre off fuel. So I doubt that it is a con, as it wouldn't be aired as advice on live television?

Thank goodness my Range Rovers run on LPG! and I do not pay the norm of 42.5 p a litre, I pay 38P a litre.( Through most west counties at Countrywide gas)

You pay less but how many mpg do you get? :o

Wouldn't be that much less, normal rangie will return around 11-18 mpg dependant on driving style on petrol, lpg will return around 9-15mpg (again dependant on driving style) but @ a cost of half the price of petrol he's on to a winner. Besides no-one drives a rangie for it's fuel economy. I know i don't drive my 30 year old ex-mil airportable for it's fuel economy. T Edited by bhodisatva

I found this site handy, you can subscribe and then it will email you every week the cheapest price at pump near your post code.

Works for me...See ya...Gary

Ha Ha very funny! Its another spoof

 

 

It works fine for me!! :)

... works for me as well.

 

I have signed up for the daily email that I read most days and can confirm that it does accurately reflect the prices on the forecourt. It is most defiantly not a spoof and I strongly recommend the site to identify the cheaper petrol stations.
