Maybe it's time to adopt the "carry round less fuel in order to use less" strategy?
I reckon your fuel consumption increases by 1.5% per half a tank of petrol due to the extra mass. On a more promising note throwing out 3 passengers would increase your fuel economy by circa 25% :rasp:

lol, how weird only putting little bits in here & there :S
When its empty i fill it (lasts about 8 days), the 320d costs about £85-£90 iirc.

You can't be filling that from empty then!
They're a 50L tank, and the average petrol price for regular unleaded is about 130p (50x130=£65). 98 RON is even more expensive, so would be at least £70....
And to make you feel better it cost me £88 last week to fill up the golf. Which gets me around 270 miles

last time i filled up in december i had quarter of a tank left and it took about 45 quid off me to fill it with the premium unleaded buisness, i dread to think how much it costs now. i havent had my car since december the fuel has gone up by stupid amounts since then..although on the upside we've got a whole 1p price reduction from the budget...C**TS

No point in even talking abot it tbh, we have f**k all authority to do anything about it! Its disgusting, apauling etc but we are nobody's who are powerless! The only way anything would seriously be done is a complete stand still across britain, everybody blocks the roads and refuse to move till something is done about it...
But organising that would be imposible

A few places did that, bumped it up 4h's before the reduction took place so it's basically 1p less in gov pockets and 1p more in there's ! Shows the state of thing's if you cant even get 1p off tbh...

1p a litre saves me about £2 a month, & i do 30k a year.
To be honest, if petrol were £3 a litre id still buy it, its just one of those necessities tbh. I just go without something else.

i remember seeing a group on facebook for a certain date in april IIRC for everybody to refuse to fill up at any petrol stations in the UK ,where would that get us,all it would do is ,it would only mess up for targets for the petrol stations for that specific day, so realy they would just either end up with a boost in buisness the day before or the day after the protest .lol wouldnt get us anywhere

i'd be like "ooh, petrol stations empty, i'll fill up"
S'trollin on size 7s
LOL yea. tbh the amount of good it would do us, you may aswel just use it as an advantage to be able to fill up without queing.

The situation were in will only lead to an increase in crime rates, ilegal fuel will increase
and even petrol theft/driveaways!
As much as i would never do either of the above, im sure many people would get to a point of frustration that they may use ilegal fuel/not so much actual theft at stations though.
The people who have the authority to make the decisions, as allways, are in a very comfortable position financially, said people would never pay petrol as they will have expense's claims that cover it....
Like i said, we are all powerless anyway

You see, even though fuel is getting into silly prices, I still see chav nobbers "cruising" around town, making one hell of a racket in their Carnoisseur specials, "racing" each from one side a ring road to the other.
Some on son, you're not impressing anybody worth impressing and ****ing money up the wall for what? Being an embarasment to yourself? Well done.

I totally agree mate, which is weird because you're carrying extra weight. But dividing it down I get better MPG from a full tank.
Shocking maths is probably the answer!

i brim mine then fill up whenever i get to quarter of a tank left, usually lasts me just over a week or so.
Lot a shite!!! Your fuel is either 150+ a l, or you have an Aux tank. Vee is £72 to fill with Super. Same as the BM. (£68 with 95)
