  1. cos they are popular, most popular convertable of that size, and most escorts are metal oxide by now
  2. Tempest, if only it were as simple as that. firstly ask why is tax on fuel that high? then think about what u just said!
  3. Tax on fuel is set at a % rate of the cost per littre in the budget the chancellor states fuel tax as up or down Xpence based on the current pump price, thus hiding the fact that fuel tax is around 340% So if the oil companies put up crude oil up, fuel prices go up and thus the tax bill goes up too. Now the stink of it is that we are already paying for next months delivery price. when they buy the oil it based on the following months delivery price. so oil purchased in march gets delivered in april. HOWEVER prices of crude go up the price at the pump goes straight up, and never comes down till the delivery of the cheaper crude oil again. SO the government AND the oil companies are both laughing. And to add more salt to the wound. The USA does not export oil. never has. so why are we paying for their shortage!! especially as the oil produces outside the USA have already upped production to meet the demand. In any other industry the more you make of something the cheaper it becomes to produce. not petrol and diesel apparently. as for all this stuff about reserves, well they should really have sorted the next fuel out by 2020 shouldnt they. so why has petrol prices not gone up at the same % rate across europe?? As for panic buying, im not im just making sure i can get to work to pay the bills. I have not intention of cueing for petrol so i'll fill my 20l container now while i can. cos IF it all kicks off again, i can be prepared. i will support the cause, but cant afford to be sort of fuel
  4. Well it seems that next week there are threats to block the fuel distribution outlets across the country to prevent delivery to forecourts. so guys seems its time to keep the tank full every day. metal fuel can time i think!! so if you know anywhere that is doing cheaper fuel, 1stly fill up and secondly post it here!!
  5. Andy665, Well if you'd said, I've got a sparekit but its missing the Purple sensor bit :lol:
  6. personally i'd start by clamping all the Politicians cars an make them jump on the bus, wonder how they feel about traveling on public transport in london and the possiblity of getting blown up!!
  7. If the base price comes down the the tax will too, but the tax is the major problem, so protests need to focused around the city in london, the stock market is the heart of the country, bring that to a standstill and you get attention. Also stopping parliament sitting etc. Blocking tanker deliverys etc wont work and someone will get hurt.
  8. Nice Idea, but these companies supply more that just petrol, you'd need to boycott the whole product range to make it work. Any think Petrochemical basically.
  9. Get yourself and random orbital polisher and some rubbing compound, it will come up like new.
  10. you know in the summer when all those little black bug go for your bright clothes lol.
  11. yeah they are the venom jobbies, they do look nice on dark cars imho

  15. Better of with a passet set up from the same age car as your own
  16. G60_Stoney, by law you are allowed to ask for CCTV tape if you feel that you are on them. even if you go into a shop and dont want anyone proving you were there. its as simple as that. I think it part of the Data protection act or something along those lines.
  17. Firstly sorry abot the Rado, secondly Did you get the taxi drivers reg number, if so then report him, if not and u have witnesses there is a system you can claim against for this type of thing.

    100ron shell

    I paid £0.899 pl tonight and that was Shell diesel Extra! Its about time they set a ceiling on petrol prices inline with crude oil like they do in spain. it means that the oil companies cant charge over a set rate. its brilliant and stops motorway services charging miiles more. Some places are still cheaper but most places are inline with each other.
  21. VR6, I've got a Leon but mines g60jet :lol: doh i missed that..been a long day
  22. What engine do you have in it the K&N will make a sucking noise, do you have the oem filter to try?
