Just to put this into context, if we are kind to the gap I quoted above and assume a yearly mileage is 10,000 miles then:
– A petrol engine returning 34mpg vs a Diesel engine returning 54mpg.
– Both fuels are £1.28 per litre in my area (best for a long time ?)
– The petrol engine would use 1,341 litres in the year
– The Diesel engine will use 841.
– So the delta within the year will be £640 in favour of diesel.
It’s an eye opener isn’t it?
? I will be remembered for nothing but had great fun doing it ?
