Downsized to be more economic fearing the error. Road tax is not changed stupid insurance penalised me for downsizing. 6 months at £56 insurance for citymatic. I had 6 months left on nexia so effectively 2 insurances.
Told them old one went to scrap should told them could not afford there high insurance.  Thats Zurich for you its cheapest I have been able to get around last time I renewed maybe should threatend to walk been with them since they bought eagle star. |
Hello mertle, hows it going buddy?.... I hear loud + clear insurance are pain to there own cause, putting up prices -then selling our data to 3rd party wondering if we interested in claiming for that "accident". Late to find they have jacked up the renewal price to cover your claim in the first place
As for fuel wise I've seamed to have cracked, it's easy on my wallet long term & pay for the rest with no more extra expenses on top of my yearly total figure. If your wondering I put a quarter of thinners (1 can of thinners) per tank with the mixed cleaned oils for each tank, that can be used motor oil, cooking oil or even old compressor oil. The thinners is an old trick on how to keep your engine working clean while using spent used oils. I get my sources from in the motor repair industry I take it away it saves them disposal costs so much so, I get a call when theres a 5 gallon drum full normally & collect with placing a empty drum to be refilled later.
LPG wise I got a choice of three sources.. four if you count the petrol station that has put in large LPG tank this week area a square area of 100 miles.
On the future wise, once I get things going with a few solar panels that I've got coming (second hand -off a back of a lorry) with a second hand tank & water supply - I'll have a hydrogen fuel on tap which will be free of charge then using the same set up but with a small nipple nozzle in the injector system.
On another note here, from the paraffin to using fine brandy or single malt or even whisky or vodka can be used but the first four are more pricey than normal petrol so be wise all, it's just a waste of good booze.
Looks for my 15yr single malt in my drinks cabinet...... cheers all!
