??

I have argued this point before with the forecourt price, no fuel duty as I am using it for heating my van only.
The answer I got from the cashier was that the oil companies can't be bothered to adjust the pump prices for heating only purchase and that not enough people complain

I think LP gas and kerrosene oil are 5% vat rated for heating. Not sure how the VAT man would differentiate between heating and cooking for LPG.
The price quoted by the OP cannot be correct even if 5% VAT was added.

Bet the cashier thought "stupid man, either pay the price or go elsewhere"

Unlike Europe lpg is a very minor fuel, slowly garages are not bothering with it which is worrying.
Causing a commotion when you fill up wont help our cause.

Well I put in 21 litres just over £5 give them a ring ask them the price and come back on here and tell me I’m wrong. Carvers littles lane wolverhampton

Just looked it up on LPG.eu. Autogas is 58p per litre. If you subtract the fuel duty at 32p = 26p per litre.

Nice if true but sadly the road duty is per kg and not per litre

Doesn't a litre of water weigh 1Kg? ....unless I'm mistaken

It does. But LPG is not water. A litre of LPG weighs about half a kilogram.

 

[bigtree]

2 litres equals 1 kg or thereabouts.

Pffft .

As an ex-baker I was always used to working with weights of water, working from 20 fluid ozs to a pound, never had any cause to put lpg into my baking .... although I was tempted a few times

 

[Tude]

Some experts on here last time I share a bargain

 

[Tude]

Why would I come on here and tell lies come on guys this is easy google it ring them then put it on here ???????

 

[obanvanman]

That's why I love you lot.
A Funster comes on here with all good intentions to let all and sundry know about an absolute bargain.

And within a few posts it turns in to a discussion about the weight of it.

Couldn't make it up if I tried.

I don't think they do, its only when its used as a road fuel that it changes.

I give up with humans !!! I was exited to share a rareity in this shitole we all live im done

The 58p per litre quoted from mylpg.eu was from April. The latest figure I can find is from November from FillLPG which is 48p.

So using 48 as ‘on the road fuel price’ - subtract VAT at 20% giving 40p, then subtract the fuel duty of approx 16p (half a kg round figures), giving 24p, then add back on 5% domestic use VAT giving 25.2p per litre.

All very rounded rough figures, but close enough to show the OPs original quote of 26p per litre is doable.

@Tude don’t give up.

If he bought it at the price he stated, it must be doable!

Cheers @Tude a tad away from me for now but appreciate the heads up
Last time I filled at trago it was .56p

 

[Parrot Face]

Another genuine thank you from me, a great post, a real bargain and a great piece of information regarding heating and tax, many thanks.

Not sure about the maths above but Andy's Gas near Bristol has two prices for his LPG. One for LPG used to fuel / drive a vehicle and one for LPG used for heating / cooking (domestic); however, I don't think it has ever recently been as low as 26p litre. He does only charge the lower price for refilling Gaslows, etc.
