Dave Payne Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 This time of the year, in the uk, just take the 100% domestic rate, tax man isnt going to chase you down the river! I just filled up at a marina at 80p/litre, of course you can get cheaper, last year i paid 60p/litre at a different place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ditchcrawler Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 The point I was making was that in France 100% duty paid is still cheaper than a 40?60 split at most locations and if the OP is buying on the Thames then its a lot cheaper in France, but he will probably need to take a can to the garage to get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Whatever you're paying I suspect you'll be paying more in the future (Mr Hammond). Double knock for those with diesel cars like me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not paying white diesel prices for red diesel at the waterside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year Sheperton was £1 10p for heating. http://diesel.fibrefactory.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
