Yesterday (Sunday) Bacton area. Very nice car but PLEASE dont overfill it as you were pissing petrol all over the road as it was pouring out of the the filler as you took a very hard left into the turning.

Oh, and smoking as well! Good job you did not flick your glowing butt out of the window yikes

I saw someone do this last Wednesday in tesco's

It was a diesel astra and he just kept going click, click click, he then pulled the nozzle out and bit and did it again, i reckon he got another 3 litres in the filler spout!

No doubt first roundabout he chucked it all round the road

You can fill right up the neck provided nothing leaks, I do it all the time in my cars and never spill a drop.

Sometimes though on an old shed the filler pipe gets cracked or something so it all pours out if you fill past the leak.

Sounds like Mantra man needs sorting out before he kills a biker. I once followed a shed of a land rover all the way to his house on my fireblade because he was sloshing diesel everywhere. As it stood there on the drive it was gushing out, I said "oi look at that diesel -- you've left it everywhere" and I just got some sort of shrug as he walked off.

Shame really but in hindsight I think lighting my fag and flicking on my match may have been a bad move lol.

Not only that but I couldn't afford for my car to be pissing my money back out of the petrol tank!
