Re: stag 300 or brc

Car is a 3.2 V6 Omega .. Slightly different technology to a BMW X5. I've got a mixer system working on a V8 Range Rover but I wouldn't recommend putting one of those and expecting it to work. The system has to be suited to the car and what will work well on one, won't on another.

Re: stag 300 or brc

I have had a BRC Sequent system fitted for 2 years ... and not a hickup yet (touch wood). Its been checked annually and the only work needed has been the lpg filter change.

Car is a 3.2 V6 Omega .. and I'm very very pleased with it... :)

Re: FillMeWithLPG.co.uk

Would you be able to email me the POI file to webmaster@fillmewithlpg.co.uk so I can see how it works with two different icons?
I'll look at doing this tomorrow.
It's just 2 different POI's. You can download it here:

Re: FillMeWithLPG.co.uk



Which station is it? If you entered the note you should be able to delete it, I'll have a look and see why.


It's the Calor Swindon one ... When I click it I get 4 options: Edit Station, Change price, add note, delete.

if I click "edit station" I can change location and name :)

Countrywide

Just had my latest bill, and included with it the latest price rise ..:(

They say the RFD plus " a small wholesale rise" = 2 p/litre not including VAT.
I thought the RFD was max of 1p/litre this budget ??

Seems to me they are adding quite a LARGE wholesale rise .... :(

Total cost will now be 62.2 ...

There are several different sources, including (the worst) TomTom GPS . but they all seem to have errors of one sort or another...

NO

Fuel duty will rise by "1p in real terms" in other words inflation + 1p .. VAT will then be payable on top as well .. so expect 3p rise in fuel duty.

and we all pay fuel duty even on LPG

All announced in the Pre Budget Report last autumn .. :(
