    If you put €20 diesel in a car tonight at 1-44.9

    Tomorrow it should be 1-46.5

    So if you put in €20 tomorrow how much money/fuel would u lose?

    €20 @ €1.44.9 per litre is 13.8 litres
    €20 @ 1.46.5 per litre is 13.65 litres

    You would have an extra 150 ml in your tank, probably the same amount your car will burn up waiting in the Q for your €1.44.9 fuel tonight :D

    If you put €20 in tonight, and €20 in tomorrow, it's just going to cost you the same.

    About thirty cent ?

    The queues out there tonight were comical.

    Delighted I'm not working tonight. Work in a filling station and you can be damn sure they're flat out! Madness.

    Even if you filled a 80L tank from empty

    @1.449 = €115.92
    @1.469 = €117.52

    You have a saving of €1.60, or you'd just about get a litre extra.

    Went for a run earlier and you'd swear there was a fuel crisis on. Any reputable station had queues on the road in Fundalk.

    How is it in your pocket if you've to drive to a petrol station wait and then full your car in some sort of 28 days later panic.
    Has fuel not gone down in recent weeks? €1.50 odd to low €1.40's? Budget is bringing it back to previously seen prices.
    Go further east from Ireland and see the price of fuel - its still a nice bit cheaper in Ireland!

    Yes but we pay motor tax separately to fuel and the duty on it. They pay their motor tax on their fuel.

    I pay motor tax here in Switzlerland separately just like home, same in Germany and as far as I know France as well.

    and another rise on Jan 1st when the vat goes up 2%

    so.. €144.9 + carbon tax +2% vat = €148.92

    + whatever fuel rise we have due to the weakening euro/dollar + next war on iran +one fiddy = €204.9
