Icky gas, OH NO! Well, If it were here in the US, I'd smell a lawsuit in the works. However, I don't know how the UK works. Here people sue because they were looked at the wrong way and it hurt their day!

Lol.......it doesn't really work like tha so much over here yet bigdreams.........pretty much ( unless its some real bad scenario) they pay to get the car drained and refuelled back to original, covering costs of any replacement parts needed. Been there, although that was a few years ago now, and we're starting to get the sue everybody for everything culture over here now as well.

Yeah good point bigdreams05, I don't think it takes this kind of crap for them to raise the prices...what was their profit (record breaking at that) for the year? 36 billion dollars or something like that....Wonder why they had record profits for the year? I just can't figure it out!
