gone down again today, its like being back to the 90's

 

i wish it was the 90's again

in 1996 i passed my test and was cruising around in my mk 3 xr3 (non injection) and petrol was 50p a litre then

 

i dont remember petrol ever being that cheap for me, but then i didnt pass my test until 2000-2001

 

morrisons are selling petrol for -90p...others will follow

 

I remember my 1st car, fiesta 1.8 quartz deisel on a N-plate, brand new, looking back is was pants compared to what I've had since but do remember it used to cost about Ł20 to fill it up a full tank, that was in 1995

 

Our morrisons is 89p i only put some in last wednesday but im tempted to put some more in just for the hell of it

 

Should be cheaper though,fucking robbing cunts in westminster.

 

yeah i remember it "4 star" at 54p when i first started and unleaded was in the 40s..

i only ever stick 10 or 20 quid in....in the 14 years of driving ive never ever filled the tank on any car, i remember putting about 15 quid in my first car and it leaked..

 

have a look at http://www.speedlimit.org.uk/petrolprices.html and see how much it used to cost year by year

 

v power is 97p where i live. I can remember when i pasted my test it used to be 79p.

 

when i passed it was 75.9p

 

Still over a quid in scotland then.

 

must of been good driving in the 80s....

 

Petrol around here is still 95.9p, robbing cunts

 

Esso I passed earlier in Hathern, nr Loughborough was at 89.9p and heard that a station in derby is also down to the same. how low will it go...we holding bets?

 

When I left school and got a job as trainee mechanic you got -

-

3 gallons for a quid

(showing my age here !!!)

 

As an apprentice did you have to walk in front of the bosses car holding a red flag?

 

ha ha

Used to fil lup lots of Jags, Aston Martins, Lotus Elans etc.

How many of you remember being served with petrol ???

 

yeah me, a garage round the corner still served you, up untill it closed a few years ago..

 

I never like them, always worried they would be sloppy and spill petrol on the paint work

 

And me , i remember 2,3, and 4 star

 

will be as low as 83p by monday

 

Don't remember 5 star then ?

 

At my first garage there used to be a little petrol station on the front where the fella used to come out and fill up for you. Reps liked him because it ment they could stay in the car when it was raining etc. He was only a day time opener but he accidently left his pumps turned on all night a couple times...must of cost him a fortune

IIRC there's a little station in Ticknal, nr me in derby that still does the whole come out fill up and check your oil level.....not been that way for a while though so may have ceased trading. There's also a station in Colerton that still sells four star....bloody dear though

 

Filled the 3 door up today with v power 90.9 at my local garage , still needs to come down as its still way to much
