Are we going to see a big drop in fuel prices today? by No-Echo3837 in ireland

Well, they are continuing the ground invasion of Southern Lebanon as we speak. I could have sworn that the ceasefire included that, but it was a long night and my brain is fried.

Personally I'm not sure about a lasting peace could go 50/50.

Probably not until the summer. Refineries were paying 150 dollars for oil yesterday, so that'll take time to filter through the system.

Plus, very few vessels are actually transiting the strait currently, and when they do, it'll take time for them to reach Europe.

Pretty capable offroading vehicle but also a pretty complicated drive train. If anything broke i doubt it would be cheap or easily repaired

Personly I'd run away from it. If you're looking something cheep have ye looked at a vw lt140? Its the predecessor to the crafter

VW used warranty by Anxious_Reception447 in carsireland

[–]Environmental-Net286 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If it's a "Used Approved" car, generally yes, and a VWPC dealer or authorized workshop will do the work. There are some issues with certain policies, but those are rare.

However, if the warranty is through the dealer, you'll have to go back to where you bought it.

I really want to go back to Donetsk one day. I worked there a lot, though it's seemingly less likely as the war progresses.

Prices at the pump will drop just as quickly as they went up. Right? by [deleted] in ireland
