Gas Your BMW?

Posted on June 27, 2008 - Filed Under News

Oz! Have you heard this one!? No, I don't mean PUT gas (what you call petrol) in your car. I mean GAS it!
In Germany; a liter of regular gasoline now costs about $9.40 per gallon. A German man doused his BMW with gasoline and torched it on Friday in protest at skyrocketing fuel costs, police said. The unemployed 30-year-old man drove the black 1995 BMW 3-series sedan onto the lawn outside Frankfurt's convention center. He then jumped out, emptied a canister of gas over the vehicle, and set fire to it, Wagner said. By the time the fire department got to the scene, the car was entirely burned out.
Now he doesn't have the fuel cost problem. ~Boz 🙂

    9.40??? and for one litre??? (I think, that you meant gallon, because everywhere on the internet there are gallons) And I thought, that we, in Slovakia, have the most expensive gas… about 6 USD per gallon… This is the first time I read, that somebody pays more for a gallon of gas (gasoline, petrol or how you call it all around the world). European prices are really the highest…
