Topped up with 30 litres of Diesel at $1.179 per litre at corner of Nicholson and Princes Sts, Carlton. While most stations hover around$1.319, this indy Mobil supplier has kept the price low for the last 3 weeks. :goodjob:

Best I have seen is 119.9 at 7/11 Surfers Paradise.

127.9 at the cheapest Caltex (less 4c is 123.9)

I usually feed Firty BP Ultimate and score the Velocity points but a little cheap Diesel once in a while can't hurt. In fact, driving home that night, we got Firty to her lowest economy figure in Melbourne yet. ;)

Hard to argue that with cheap Diesel and Chinese tyres, the car is running quieter and leaner than ever. :eek:
