I just wanted to let you know that if you were to fill an emty Syncro tank
(70l), with 98 octane gas, like I have to, you would have to spit out
$85,63! with a liter price of 9,15 nkr, that is a whopping $1,22 per liter!,
or Cdn$ 1,86 per liter. Diesel is about 7,50 nkr or $1,00 Cdn$ 1,53. With
the highest gas prices in Europe, I must be crazy to drive a thirsty car as
this. (average 15l/100km)
