Car useage post apocalypse?

[MK4 Slowride]

How long does petrol keep for abouts then if it's in a jerry can or petrol station reservoir, as I assume the quantity of it might help it keep for longer?

I need to know as there's a Koenegg dealer near me and the CCX will be mine. But it'd be useless without some motion lotion, obviously. OK, a supercar might not run too well on Smirnoff & Glennfiditch maybe my Fiesta will?

We all know that some filtered (used) frying oil can be used to power a diseasel but we can't be driving around post apocalypse in some devils fuelled behemoth.

When the petrol has expired or run out what alcohol can be used & in what ratios to power my sled?

25 litres left in a 944 certainly won't survive for 8 years. What it will do is stink to high heaven when you drain it out.

Hey Slowride, maybe we could start our own post apocolyptic Road Warrior South West gang. I'll be Lord Humongous you can be Wez....

I was actually wondering this as well, I think Diesel keeps for longer than Petrol which does "go off", when I bought my Land Rover it hadn't moved for two years but managed to start on the Diesel that had been left in the tank.

I presume your talking about the Koenigsegg in Cheltenham? I haven't seen it yet, keep meaning to pop in on my way home from work. Where exactly is it?

It looks just like the A38 on a Saturday night......



This could easily be the M5!

It's on the Tewkesbury road mate, give me a shout if your planning on going as I'll come along as well.

There's also a classic car dealership in Bourton on-the-water industrial estate that has some proper tasty metal in, if your into classics that is.

Why would you want a sports car??? That aint going to save you from phyco bandits or mutants etc etc.

Personally me and a group of mates would break into a local millitary place nab a Warrior and a shed load of fuel/ammo and start a small slave business.
