$124.9 for regular gas on the sign I can see from my office window.
That makes it about $4.72 per US gallon or $5.62 per Imp gallon.

I remember the C111 with the wankel engine, and later testing what
became the OM60x engines and turbos. They probably used it to test
the OM617 turbo right after the wankel. There was a lot of Diesel

You may be right about this. On the other hand, if he has something that
limited and special, don't you think he'd promote it more and ask more for it?
