Sounds like the price for 91 is much the same as here, locally cheapest
91 is 218.9 cpl so $87.56 for 40lts.
E10 is only 2cpl cheaper.
Thanks to D Trump plus a bit of greed and profiteering.

Not sure there is ever a good reason to stay in Melburg.. :-)
LOL, I just got home this arvo.. was planning to stay a couple of weeks,
but an accident in a fish tank changed my plans and has now cost me
plenty. Aside of the fuel cost,($250 round trip?) wife has flushed $400 worth of dead fish down the gurgler... one decided to dig where it
shouldn't have, and a rock landed on its head. Where it couldnt be seen,
of course... The result is a tank going through whats called an "ammonia crash". I've had to move fish out of that tank, into another, but as

Lucky it's not Diesel. $2.60 a litre here. A quarter tank top up in the Ranger costs just over 50 bucks. For 20 litres.....
According to media analysts, because the orange pants shitting pedo has totally fucked things up in Iran the price of oil is going to hit 125
bucks a barrel, which will mean $3.20 a litre for Diesel here for us,
with Petrol not far behind it.
Might as well be living in New Zealand :)

Interesting that the price of car fuel keeps going up but the cost to
use public transport seems to be getting cheaper, I can go from BM to
the city and back for $2.84, the Govt is subsidizing one form of
transport over another, costs more to drive to and from the station than
its does to go to and from the city by train.
Good for people who can take advantage of low PT fares but very bad for people such as tradies who have to use vehicles.

The move to low sulphur diesel fuels was not an idle step since all new diesel engines are designed for a low sulphur fuel environment. Remind
me how many engines and trucks we build in Australia these days since
your liberal mates drove out all manufacturing?

I still remember Tony Abbott driving in thelast nail in the coffin of
the car makers -
and after they left, so did all their OEM suppliers.
I know because my wife worked for those same OEM suppliers who supplied
to Ford, Holden & Toyota.
