I live in France and went to fill the car up (Range Rover Supercharged).

160 euro went in and when I paid, they automatically took 15% off! Seems the government is subsidising all fuel for everyone. 15% gets taken off when you pay!

It went up 6%.

But it’s not all good news. Food is expensive.

If you're in mainland France shouldn't it be 18-20%? You've been diddled!

I didn't read it that way at all. I read it as interesting info and news to me. The Rangie issue simply meant that the poster will save quite a lot.

That's about as much as they can do to make up for living there, I suppose.
