Over $155 for one tank o' petrol! Luckily, we get a subsidy, and don't really have to pay that much, but the locals sure do!
90 liters for Euro 120,-
90/3.785412= 23.78 gallons
Full tank cost me $145
1.333 Euro per liter here for 98 octane. ($6.11/US Gallon)
Normally it is Euro 1.40/liter but I got a discount of 7 cents the liter.
(Discount is $.32 per US Gallon)
"I made a deal with a different station which sells 98 Octane (Shell V-power)."
You sure?, V-Power is 97 octane here in Holland.
And as for the octane number.
98 octane in Europe is the same as 93 octane in the US.
RON and MON numbers
