I'm sure this has probably been discussed before, but what is the most you have paid for a tank of fuel?

I filled my motor up today, ready for the family holiday which starts on Friday morning. The local Tesco Superstore dropped it's price to 128.9pence per litre this morning so I thought I would make the most of it. . . I managed to clock up £99.07

I was going for the magic £100 but couldn't squeeze anymore go-go juice into the neck of the tank.

Fortunately I had the receipt from SWMBO's last weekly shop which also entitled me to an extra 5p per litre discount. So the final bill was only £95.27.

A colleague at work clocked up more than £116 worth of diesel in his Series 2 Disco at the weekend. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

Shell V Power, £114....and boy is that juice good - could feel extra oomph on the motorway, slightly better consumption too...

Where does it stop though eh?? Will we all still be happy paying £200 a tank in months to come?? off to the states soon, and looking forward to $4 gallons.....found a car rental place in LA to rent me out an RRS SC too....

Got over £119 in the Touareg - 100 litre tank. The pain now is the £100 max at most pumps

kaine - i thought it was just me that got the hump with the limit! Worse still are the pre-pay pumps that usually have a limit of £70! 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

my Tesco has £70 fill on the self serve pump, which is pointless as you have already authorised the card

£88 is my biggest fill, but then the FL2 has a tiny tank

VA - I keep trying to reset the pump by replacing the nozzle and waiting however it never works - its starting to annoy me

Gonna cost you way more than $4 per gallon for premium especially in Calif... i am lucky ... very lucky with $4.18/Gallon here in the Oil Capital that is Houston..... dont even get a discount for finding the stuff

....at the end of the day NickM as much as petrol is mostly taxation and it urks me to say so, it is still cheap IF you compare it to such things (as I do) like a bottle of coke - £1.35 for a half litre bottle today in the garage........criminal.

If it comes to £200 a tank, so be it....I will just simply charge more for my time to my clients, therefore reducing the impact  L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!

Agree Jay, we're getting a Q7 TDi S-line in August.

Nice to drive new cars I think...

A couple of months ago I filled up at Texaco and it cost £112. That was the most I ever filled and would last me just over a week, but it was costing £100+ for every fill. Now that my wife drives it, it costs her about £90 and lasts for over 3 weeks!
