A November night in Dublin. Good beer as usual. Good pubs also.

Up in the air (again)

I start sharing the football player feeling. I am in a lot of places and I know no one... Rather sad isn't it?

The Eye of Sauron

Madrid as seen when you return from a trip abroad. Even looks good doesn't it? Don't get fooled, it is just a demo ;-)

Mainz night

Mainz, Germany.
God place to run one enablement.
Nice pork food und beer.

Barcelona as seen from Hilton hotel

It looks like a futuristic place, and may be it is.
Two interesting days spent working in Barcelona, a pitty I could not enjoy it more.
At least I could see the "Sagrada familia" from the taxi on my way to the airport...

Last dawn in Almería

Was it MacArthur who said 'I shall return!'?

So... That :-)

Yara i Spanien :-D

Titta vad jag hittade i en spansk bil i Almeria (Spanien) XD
Gamla minnen....

New toy in town ;-)

After all that buzz over LPG I thought I should introduce our new toy;
We just bought it second hand a week ago in pristine condition (hopefully ...) and with low mileage (56k km)

And no, there is not enough room in the trunk for the LPG tank plus the luggage :-(

More about petrol consumptions

As the last post talks about fuel consumption I will spoil a little the news of the summer and I will talk about the new Miata consumption.

As you can see those two are my yesterdays two visits to the gas station.
In total it shows a consumption of 44.17L at 64.51€.... it is not cheap at all, but it could have been worst since I did 590.5km

It shows a 7.48L / 100km (running at legal speeds and mostly using 120km/h highways) or 10,92€ / 100km, quite far away from my 7€/100km my LPG car makes.

If I make the maths using those figures:
GPL install = 1800€+IVA (VAT) = 2178€
Assuming it uses the same amount of LPG as my Octavia then we can see that we can save 4€ each 100km and 2178/4=544.5 meaning that I would have to make 54500km to break even.

Something that needs a lot of thinking though since looks like I would use almost half of the trunk for the LPG tank. :-( Unfortunately there is no other location to place it.

LPG fuel running cost (o GPl o GLP ;-) as of today

This is exactly how much it costs me to make 568km when I use my LPG (GPL)  car.

It varies from 6.7€ to 7€ each 100km depending on the cost of the gas. It has gone a bit high lately, but with petrol at 1.55€....

I guess it is cheaper than using most diesel cars and with the comfort and refinement of petrol :-)

In my old diesel car it would has cost me around 49€ so I think I did the right thing when I transformed my petrol car to LPG :-D... with regular petrol it would have gone circa 68€...

Hazy mornings bring...

Sunny days :-D
