M40 Services

Joy of joys. I'm going to the NEC on Tuesday.

Oh FOAK and M40 users, are there services on the M40 these days?

 

prawn fumbled, fiddled and fingered:

Well it's ~180 miles which is cutting things a little fine.

 

I tried and failed to get a conclusive answer after 5 minutes.

 

You could take the 0 off that and I'd still be cutting it fine!

 

Cherwell Valley (J10) and another lot north of Banbury, Warwick - ish

 

Ta. One of those will do nicely.

 

There's one at Warwick, as well.

 

Warwick services - near, er Warwick.

1 Full tank on the XJR@80-90MPH

 

And a bit further on there is a big Tesco with petrol just left of
Junction 4 on the M42.

 

That's my local one, that is.

I was most put out when I filled up in Worcester this evening at 79.9p
a litre at Tesco to find that Tesco Solihull had it for 76.9 and I'd
had enough to get home.

 

Console yourself. 3p a litre, is about 50p saved on a tank. Don't try
and tell me that's worth being put out over.

 

Or to put it another way, you've just bought somebody on the dole half a
microwave meal - the cost of fuel is almost all tax anyway.. Tax to
help poor people. How caring is that?

 

Heh.. microwave meals are too expensive if you're on the dole.

 

That reminds me. There's a petrol station near my Mum's that's selling
red diesel. At almost half the price of the regular stuff I thought
about taking a gamble and filling my van up with it.

What's the deal with that? I never checked it out and only saw that they
sell it.

Does it pump out like in a regular pump and will they let you fill up
like ordinary diesel or would you have to put it in some sort of
container? I can't see them letting you pull up and fill the tank but
you never know.
