Ive got an XKR Jaguar to fill with petrol. Oh i am undone. what shall I do?

And I only mention it in my signature to fill the space.

Come on!

If you are  in a position to own a car like that, good for you. I'm sure you've worked hard for it, but at the risk of sounding bitter and twisted, spare me the tripe about fuel costs.

Erm :-k
Did you not notice the 'laughing icon'?????, or is your reply really to be taken in the 'same vein'??

For a car like that, we're happy to pay a bit extra, but it's probably cheaper than running a petrol Series/90/110/Range Rover :-k

Okay, I'll admit I have seen 4MPG from it, but that's on a 'full-bore' start (done in pure experimentation), but how many people drive around like that?? (bar the Chavs in their Saxos, Corsas??)
However, with an apparant average so far of 24-25MPG, we're not complaining that much.

Merlin617,

That wasn't a very nice thing to say, BTM is a respected and interesting long standing, regular contributor to this forum and doesn't deserve to have comments like that levelled against him, nasty comments are not welcome on this forum.

Thanks  :roll:



Okay, the running an XKR comment was added in a spirit of fun to try & lighten the debate, & I sincerely do hope that Merlins addition was meant in the same spirit?

Petrol is cheaper than diesel because it's the better fuel  :lol:

Diesel for tractors and tractor units, petrol for cars  :lol:
