Default Most Expensive Tank of petrol I ever got

I was just doing the sums on what a tank of petrol cost me last week. Not actually including the petrol, about $10 a litre .. the commodore was a steal at about $7 a litre.
That's what it cost.. plus the petrol of course, to get the cars repaired after two dodgey tanks of fuel.
The commodore actually stopped and required towing when the fuel pump finally siezed. After that I booked the XR8 in and it was only a matter of time before it went too. Both of them required new fuel pumps and filters .. plus labour and other stuff directly related to the problem.

Someone will be hearing about this ... I don't have more than a grand to chuck away because of some 98 octane fuel !!

It was BP Ultimate too ... you would expect far better than that, particularly at what petrol costs.
