Kurty Supercharged January 1, 2011 Share January 1, 2011 actually i don't feel its safe to bring back fuel... i did try that before... first, the petrol will evaporate... so if you bring back 20L, by the time you use it. it may not be tat much, probably 17l? i tried keeping it in a cooler place but still don't really works much... plus i had a hard time finding the long funnel to pour them into my gas tank.. end of the day, a failed project. not to mention, it's dangerous... i don't wish to burn my flat down...

Good-Carbuyer 1st Gear January 1, 2011 Share January 1, 2011 Bring extra fuel other than in the car tank is subject to taxes,not worth it. You got the point. You are right. It is smuggling if he does not declare the fuel transporting. His car is also not licenced/insured to petrol for commercial purposes. His car can be confisticated for smuggling (COE not cheap even if his car is cheap) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
