For the premium 95 octane stuffs, $1.48 in Launny and $1.51 in Hobart this weekend, payed $1.55 the other week at Swansea.

We have just got the 98 octane stuff down here recently. I think that is usually about 4-6 cents more than the 95 stuff, if they have it at all.

hell yea, thats been one of the best sa cruises, stuwey busting out his brand spanking new 1293 and me busting out my brand spanking new 1132 both on new yoko rubber i beat him in that drag

the hotbricks minis at the mill one that poeee came on was awesome too where we went to get AB's and we drove through the mini sized gap to avoid paying the carpark fee and we buzzed down the freeway in formation like angry hornets and we raced up greenhill road and i was all over nathans hot 998 in my stocko 1100 on old 145's

When I was at uni the local garage would give a discount if you bought more than $2 worth. The sad thing was that you couldn't fit $2 worth of super in a Mini.

But if you had THREE minis you could buy 5 bucks worth and get an even better discount

Cheers, Ian

When I had my first Mini you could fill the tank for $1.00

I used a tank full going to and from Uni all week and a tankfull at the weekend. I had a Saturday morning job that paid $4.00 and I charged the girl down the road $1.00 a week to take her to Uni so that left $3.00 to spend
