Because Russia refine 20% of our diesel, up to 40% in reality.

£140 to fill my tank at the mo
Apparently some parts of China have gone into a covid lockdown again which should reduce oil prices a bit....
How does it cost you £140 to fill up your tank BTW?(I fill mine up when I get down to a quarter of a tank due to my diesel heater)currently I put in around £45-£50 to fill mine up to the brim....
It's costing me around £40 a week to drive my van and heat my water every day for work....before the price hike it was roughly £30-£35....
The key is to build your round within a few miles of home to keep driving/fuel costs,wear and tear on your van to a minimum....that's my philosophy anyway....👍
80l tank in my custom mate, always brim it right up, then fill up again once on the red. I can get 79litres in it. The newer facelift transit customs have a 70l tank, so they ‘seem’ cheaper to brim.
Lasts me a month sometimes, so not an issue r.e compact work mate
I’m averaging 31.7mpg overall. Not bad for a big van with a 750l tank.
I think it’s possible diesel will be even more expensive depending on the Russia situation.
