What we all need to remember though is that the culprit is Mr Putin with help from OPEC.https://community.betfair.com/horse_racing/go/thread/view/94102/31760957/the-100-fill-it-up-petrol-cost-is-now-with-us?post_id=562267029#562267029Supply and demand is still alive (just) so if more people buy electric, drive less miles, buy smaller cars etc. etc. the price will come down.

One day I'll learn!https://community.betfair.com/horse_racing/go/thread/view/94102/31760957/the-100-fill-it-up-petrol-cost-is-now-with-us?post_id=562266775#562266775Hi Slippy, hope all's well with you too.I knew it was expensive to run prior to buying it but it's a car you want to get out and drive so I find myself doing more miles than is sensible in the current climate.

Hope you're in good form.I had to look up what a Macan was, I'm useless about cars and models, makes etc.Looks nice, a bit better than my wheels for sure.£122 quid, it's quite incredible how much fuel costs us.https://community.betfair.com/horse_racing/go/thread/view/94102/31760957/the-100-fill-it-up-petrol-cost-is-now-with-us?post_id=562266717#562266717Good morning J.M.
