Hi forum,

As always, le mans ends on a low note - the bother of squaring up money within the team. No one likes admin!

I'm quite baffled by the tolls tho. Autoroute calculator says 32 euros ish. However, the bills are 47 quid, 18, 5.80, 5.77, 18 ish again then nowt.

Can anyone explain how we have a spurious extra bill for the first leg of the journey? Not only is there 1 toll more than the return leg, it's higher than the route planner implied for the total? Route was standard autoroute to rouen, then more autoroute to le mans... No speeding, we used cruide just below the limit all the way..

Le Mans to calais:
£5.77 + £18.46

So, 47 quid more there than back ?!

Consensus says it's a fuel bill - presumably the automated station is run by sanef, would explain it.
