ioneabee Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I think diesel prices have now reached the point where its cheaper to run the zed than my diesel shed (well nearly anyway ) but its close enough for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuarty Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Intresting! ive got a daily car, as my son has past his driving test he is using it more than me. i'm now using the zed as my daily car As I now do more miles than I was expecting, I was thinking of selling my Zed and buying something more economical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cragus Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I can't say I agree. I'm convinced my shed runs on fresh air after the first 5 miles of a trip. ...and the zed, you turn the key and it gulps 2 thirds of a tank for the pleasure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen350ZGT Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Yeah its madness.... was looking to buy a diesel shed, but after doing the numbers with extra ins, tax, mot just not worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK350Z Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Local place by me was £1.47 when I passed this morning. Oh the joys of being rural. Same here Chris, in fact it might be £1.48/9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbitstew Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Definitely cheaper to run a shed rather than a zed - although it may depend upon the miles you do. Ive been fortunate to be able to run a shed this last 2 weeks instead of my 350z. 350z cost me £115 per week on fuel to get to work and back. (25mpg) Peugeot 307 HDI Diesel costs me around about £50 per week for the same miles. (50mpg) So whilst super unleaded is roughly the same price as diesel im getting twice the fuel economy. If I used the shed for 12 months work commuting, i would save around £3250 on fuel alone. When you factor in the other costs involved, my zed is costing me around £900 a month in total with fuel, insurance, tax, mot, depreciation etc.. Whereas the shed works out at only £420 per month.

MFM Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Hmmm Filled up today with diesel the Isuzu 4x4 at the cheapest in East Sussex - £1.40.9 litre Filled up today the Z at Tesco (Momentum) in East Sussex - £1.42 litre Nearly getting to the point where I can defend the keeping of the Z on fuel cost saving!
