Its just normal fuel  The only reason its cheap is because he pays the tax and duty up front on it and claims it back on freedom of ggods act as he has bought it for a buisness and is not making money from the fuel but money from the memberships that he has.

that's genius  so basically he's making £100 everytime someone joins up but no profit from the sale of fuel.
awesome idea that will no doubt make the guy a millionaire very soon (unless the government do something)

The company is a not for profit organisation isnt it?! So the £100 will be to cover for the cost of distribution, etc. I would of thought.

He sounds like a 'peoples hero' kind of guy.
I hope the operation moves further south than the midlands.

It would appear the guy who runs the place has been in prison for 7 years in the past for handling counterfeit money...
