Petrol station madness - what are the odds?!
« on: November 12, 2012, 05:57:10 pm »
Driving past the 8-pump petrol station by work this morning all pumps were in use.....by white vehicles.  There was also about 4 other vehicles queuing and those were all white too!  If I hadn't have seen it with my own (tired and hungover) eyes I wouldn't have believed it. :stupid:

Hence the fact VW are now charging for white whereas before it wasn't that popular and free. White is the new black, wish I could have my car sprayed white.

This happens for a lot of things. Like with electrical equipment, it switches between black and silver being trendy. Currently its black but silver will be back.

P.S. I bet the cops wished they had kept white cars now :grin:
