Here I come...!

Hey everyone..the time is near..
I posted a thread about 3 months ago saying I"ll be comming to england.
I will be in RAF Lakenheath Airforce Base , Brandon , Suffolk , England , on 07 April 06 Sooooooo.....
I've been thinking , how much are vr4's usually over there , and I hurd gas was outrageous!! 6 dollars a gallon is that right? , but anyways let me know how much they are and how much the new 06 eclipse and subaru legacy gt's are alright? THANKS!!

Petrol is around 95p per litre. I think US gallons are different to UK? One UK gallon is around £4.30,

so

US$7.50.

There are VR4's for sale in the for sale section of this site, there is no Eclipse here AFAIK and I can't possibly comment on the swearing you also put in your post!

We cant swear on the site , ?...sorry , but wow thats a hefty amount of money for a gallon of gas, makes you not even want to drive I guess. Let me ask something else , I've seen some deals on BMWs like 330ci and m3 so..hopefully I can try to look into one of those also..but I want to drive a vr4! That might change ma mind.

1 US Gallon is 3.78 litres, so at £0.95 / litre that makes a US Gallon £3.59 or $6.27...........

Compared to $2.25 for premium in North Carolina in February 06.....

I thought one of the perks of working at an Air Force Base was as much cheap / free fuel you could get your mitts on???

Ah..
Well I havent gotten on base yet , but I've heard that yes the gas is cheaper over thur..on base. Which is it cheaper over here also on base , so I will let you all know..

I wonder who all lives near this base which is located half hour from cambridge and 2 hrs from london.

I live not far from Lakenheath/Mildenhall (15 miles ish) - and one of the perks for some of my US service friends/neighbours is TAX FREE (or virtually) fuel from base supply. I think you get an allowance at the very least!!???
Hence why some of the above have Dodge Ram mini trucks and the like!!
However most have a Honda civic/Euro box for commutes etc.
Anyway bud, at least you can buy cheaper food/booze/clothes from 4 seasons and the commisary (spelling???) !!!

Smokin...................

[Donovan]

thats very tru.. haha
I want to meet you and the vr4 sometime , perhaps this weekend if you arent terribly busy mate

[Smokinmasta2]

Alas the VR4 has gone m8 - financial probs etc - so now have a small Mercedes C Class (and some some money over to pay outstanding bills!!)..........

[Donovan]
