Excellent idea. Shame their online ordering doesn't seem to be working, eh?

Contrary to popular belief, we are not tree hugging hippies who hate cars. In fact we like cars a lot.
Cars are not evil.

Modern cars are highly recyclable and quite fuel efficient. Indeed, fuel efficiency in some modern cars can be about as good as public transport - in other words, your nippy little city car when driven carefully can be more environmentally friendly than a clapped out bus per head.

Also:

Vin Diesel is a very fine actor and not our trademark at all

Although this site is a parody, Drax Fuel actually tried something similar in the past. You can see an archive version of their site here. It's certainly an interesting idea.


The URL is www.draxfuel.com/ if you are interested.

Plutonium
Particularly useful for some models of DeLorean sports cars, we can souce Plutonium in both Pu-238 and Pu-239 isotopes (Pu-239 is limited to 9 kilograms per customer).

This is shipped from our specialist suppliers based in the formet Soviet Union, usually within 28 days. Please note that some background checks may be required, and due to the hazardous nature of the fuel we recommend that some training be undertaken before using it. It may also be necessary to carry out background checks on potential customers.

Please contact us for a quote.


Ultra Low Cost Value Unleaded (50 RON)


Especially popular with Rover Metro and Nissan Micra drivers, our 50 RON ULCVU fuel is made from refinery leftovers. This is a very inexpensive fuel indeed as it is actually classified as industrial waste rather than fuel.


ROTFLMAO!

I would like to order some 50 Ron petrol from you
.
Could you arrange to have it poured through the letterbox of No.47. The old lady that lives there smells of wee, and she shouts at my cats when they crap on her windowbox.

I assume that although 50 Ron fuel has a lower octane rating, it will burn just fine when I throw a box of burning matches through the old bat's letterbox.

I also ran over a seagull in my car this morning. I chased it for 45 miles until it got knackered, then I squashed it with my offside front Pirelli.
Would you like me to send it to you to recycle into Petrel. If you don't want it, I suppose I could mount it, however, my Mum says that shagging dead animals is wrong, although striclty speaking, a gull is a bird, not an animal.

My sister says that Vin Diesel is as "fit as " but a little too greasy and over lubricated, is he Italian by any chance?
