Get ready guys, and hang on to somewhereâ€¦â€¦.
While I was in Turkey for a holiday last month, I paid AUS$2.80 for regular unleaded petrol p/l.
We had a 2lt engine car and did around 3000 kms. Every time, I went to petrol station, had to pay around AUS$130-$140 to fill up the tank.
It was worth it though, scenery and history was just unbelievable. It was a great holiday.
I recommend everyone to go and see Turkey in summer months.
If you need help please pm me.

It's over $1.30 a litre for shite 95RON down here in Tassie at the moment. Normal unleaded (91RON) is $1.22 a litre.

Wouldn't be so bad if it was 98RON........you guys with Ultimate and Optimax don't know how good you have got it.

eh it all balances out... new zealanders get FTO GS for $4000 and GR for about 7000 and GPX for under 10,000

IMO Optimax is shite
Perth we still get away with under 1.20 for Bp Ultimate

Down in good old Tamworth my old man Filled up his Stag with 98 today. $1.39!

These prices are bloody insane!

FWIW when I was in China two months ago the price of unleaded was 3.50 Yuan or around 60 cents per litre!! So it's no wonder that their car sales are going through the roof...

But China also have their own oil, plus they have lots of "cheap labor products" to trade.

Apparently it's only 95RON with addiditves to "boost" it up to 98RON.

While Ultimate is pure 98RON.

....Apparently.

And those addiditives will damage your engine in long run

Yeah petrol has increased markedly tonight - again! Here (Brisbane metro area) unleaded has hit an all time high of $1.18.9/L but I just managed to find some at $1.04.9/L luckily. Looks like the days of getting it under a dollar are well gone now

Last night here in Canberra prices for Ultimate hit the 1.37 mark.

I think I might have to start walking to work.
