How much do you reckon you've spent in the last week on petrol/diesel ?

In the last 2 weeks I've spent about £140 so about £70 a week on PETROL . I usually spend about £70 a week petrol sometimes more.

I don't work but get DLA and ESA because I genuinely need it, I drive because I can't face other people sometimes and having a car does that

Somehow it does better than the advertised mpg... manage to get 60mpg out of the damn thing on a 7 gallon tank.

On a £40 diesel tank, probably £15 every 2 weeks. Don't use my car too often for long hauls these days (filler)

I don't get the bottom statement? You drive because you can't face other people? Does that mean you don't like public transport?

I spend about £20 a week. That gets me to work and back 5 times a week. To the gym and back 3 times a week. And any trips to the supermarket etc (maybe 1 or 2 times a week)

I dunno, maybe to use to carry Building equipment from A to B? Large shopping from Tesco? ... £15 fills just over a quarter of the tank, and that gets me quite far.

And I didn't say "never" use, you just pt words into my month ... I said I "barely" use it at the moment -_-
About £50 every three/four weeks. I do about 550 miles a month.
About 50-60 a week...my daily commute to work is about 40 miles round trip so I rack up a fair few miles over a 2 week period

£0 - I don't drive; I'm a terrible driver (although I've never crashed) so I try to get lifts when possible, or I walk/skate
Last week...... 5 tank fulls at 60l a pop.
I fill up every 2-3 weeks or so and pay about £40-£50. I do around 230-330 miles a month.

I put £35 in my tank last week, and I have approximately half of it left in my tank. I will put in another £20 next week. I drive to work every day and also out of town as I live in a village, and my family live in towns.
I spent just over £60 over the last week (since friday 4th) on diesel. That was about 500miles, 300 of which were well loaded and towing a half tonne trailer.
I've not put petrol in my car for the past 2 weeks :biggrin:
