    No wonder I never bloody fill it up usually - at least putting it in bit by bit feels less like you're getting bottom-raped

    Thats bad.

    I'm really tempted to save for an LPG conversion once my mondeo gets paid off - will cut bills in half.

    Isn't fuel due to go up again in 6 months or so?

    LPG a cheap fuel option but heard a lot of bad press about how crap cars run on it a lot are running it 50/50 with petrol not sure whether its a particular system or not but its a lot of cash to pay out if its not particularly good

    I normally only stick about £7 in - that'll get me about 40 miles...

    Sometimes I have the light on for so long that I get used to it and almost forget to put some in before I run out! lol
