    £473 sometimes twice a week... Twin 200 litre tanks. 12mpg

    Only issue now is business has dropped since the company had to start adding charges on for some
    deliveries.

    I thought you was commuting in a Veyron for a sec! :rotfl:

    I dont know we use fuel cards, Company buys fuel in advance and get a discount. So the actual pump price is not what they pay.

    We fill up and it gets deducted from what they have already bought.

    At the moment £74

    I make a point of filling it all the way because I find the "£3 a day" brigade highly irritating (they're the one's who do the weekly shop before paying for the fuel).
