The price of fuel is a joke, 1.45 for diesel, I paid 1.39 about 2 weeks ago for it, what the hell is happening
P.S less slagging diesel it's the best fuel EVER :P
It's high at the moment. At one stage at topaz kilkenny about 2 weeks ago it was 1.55:eek: still your probably doing alright to get it for 1.45 if your buying in Kilkenny. I've started just filling up in clonmel on the way home from college on a Friday it always a bit cheaper.0 -

I bought my first diesel recently to tip in and out to work in. It's a 3L Jeep but fook me the bang off it when you get out of it. Petrol cars smell great, especially the gusslers but diesels smell cack. :eek:0 -

No I either buy it in Waterford or Clonmel as it's too expensive in Kilkenny. I got it today in Amber in Clonmel for that price
It always seems to be very expensive in Kilkenny. I don't buy that much diesel anyway generally 30/35 euro a week gets me kilkenny to cork (300km) return then driving around at the weekend and then a trip to new Ross most weekends too so not too bad.
I'd dread to think how much it would cost in a decent performance petrol car. Still once I qualify and get a job in a few years ill definitely get a nice petrol weekend car Megane 225 or Clio 197 something like that. I will have a good few years driving under my belt at that stage too for insurance. The focus will have to do for now
although its driving well lately no issues at all in the last 2 months or so so I can't complain 0 -

99% of vans out there with tow bars have never used them it seems.:pac:
also the amount of vans that have never had any heavy work done in them and were only used as a car is also very high.:)
Ha ha tell me about it. What kind of a van are you looking for ? People think its hard to find a decent car it's way worse to find a clean van. People seem to dog the sh!t out of them just because there vans. I've looked at some amount of crap vans. But if you look at enough of them you will eventually find a decent one 0 -

I drove one of them before man, thought it had a lovely dirve to it. Engine pulls nicely for what it is. Far better than my old 1.4
Great machine and they behave good enough I think.
In fairness the engine does suit the car. It's powerful enough for a 1.6. Just driving it around the engine never really seems that under pressure compared to some things.
My previous astra 1.3 was certainly under more pressure specially on hills there was one particular hill I drive up in new Ross a good bit and its steep and you starting from a stop on the end but no joke the Astra would only ever go up it in first no matter how hard you would try. Focus pulls like mad the whole way up it I'd be up to third gear half way up its great 0 -
Torque is fun I've learned that with my latest machine
They are a well put together car them focuses (focaii??).
I do honestly remember driving the 1.6d and saying how nice it was with it
Your next logical step is an st now

Caddy is first choice or then a berlingo/partner.
The new Caddy shape is from 2011 on tho and they are dear.
The amount of Ex UK van on the market is unreal.
It seems almost every Van I've rang is Ex UK and Im not keen at all on one of them.
Most are Ex Hire companys.0 -
