No per month I think.


No, I think it costs more if you want one month. It is a rip off really, considering that you only get third party cover.


It costs the same for us to drive in the South - 25 Euros a month for a small car. Guess we are all being ripped-off. :(


For once, I find myself in full agreement with you.

As opposed to the disorderly swallowing you usually partake in?

Now look here VW, you can't go around accusing my friend DeTallua of being a Tzimbuki, how dare you. I must express my full protestations, what?

With the quality of the petrol over there and the necessary addittion of Redex everytime you fill your tank...I'd rather pay a little extra than have to buy a new car every so often.

Anyone who runs on fuel from the occupied territory won’t be running for too long!

What I don't understand is, I found that petrol in Turkey is the most expensive in Europe. Much more than what we pay here in Switzerland, and if we were to adjust the cost of petrol to an average income per person in Europe to those incomes in Turkey, it is almost equivalent for most Europeans paying about 8-10 Euros per LITRE. So how can it be so much cheaper in the north than in Turkey, when the fuel comes from Turkey.?? My guess is, those in the north are not paying too much tax on the fuel, which I'm sure all those Turks in Turkey must love the north for getting cheaper fuel at their expense as well as a lot of Hard Cash. No wonder the 70 million Turks chooses not to buy much from the north or travel to the north for their holidays.!
