Yeah I got a single from Bristol to Norwich a foo yare back. Cost me

78 quid, and that was only cos I reserved it over a week in advance. Otherwise would have cost me 100 quid.

On the other hand, we brought the missus' Opel Astra (diesel) over last summer. Filled it up in NL (60 euros = 40 quid), and drove from Harwich to Norwich to Buxton to Reepham to Snowdonia to South Wales before we needed to fill up again.
