Um, that's 89.5p per litre. It's too late to work out the conversion right now but it's at least 3 times what we pay. Since that car gets 5 mpg it's certainly an expensive prospect to have one in England. He's done a heck of a job building it though.

And he's a Black Country boy too ... just a shame it's Wolverhampton.
Then again, had it been West Bromwich (my old home town) that would've been nicked and stripped for parts in 10 minutes .....

Talking of which - Sunday 22 October 2006: West Brom 3 - Wolverhampton "The Sh!t" Wanderers 0.
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear!!
Biggest win for something like 25 years.
Then again, that's probably because for most of that time, West Brom have been in a higher division ... bhahahahahahahahaha

Boing boing Baggies!!
Pushing for Europe

Got some pub team ... Arsenal I think they're called ... in the FA Cup ........

OK so I couldn't resist taking a shot at the math.

At 89.5 Pence per litre, it would be 3.39 British Pounds per U.S. Gallon. And using the current exchange rate, thats $6.35 per U.S. Gallon. When I was there a few weeks ago it was more like $8/gallon. No wonder there are a lot of diesels and four cylinder cars. The only V-8 I saw was a Mercedes taxi and it was running on LP gas.

Adey,
err, what division would that be. Im not familiar with this team names. Do they play in England. Im looking at the table and i see no mention of these teams.

Who is West Brom, who is Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Sorry Adey
