Mercedes driver gets called out for pumping cheap but prohibited RON95 from Malaysia

TL;DR - Yet another SG-registered Mercedes GLA180 driver enjoying the cheap RON95 from Malaysia. 

Despite several signs put up around the petrol kiosks, people just seem to intentionally be oblivious to those posters. 

Here's what I mean:

What happened?

Many Singaporeans head into Johor Bahru for the cheap food, cheap massage and most importantly, cheap petrol.

This man is no exception. The Mercedes driver was caught filling his car with RON95, the forbidden petrol that is exclusive to MY-registered vehicles only. 

In case you didn't know, a litre of RON95 costs ~SGD0.60 and a litre of RON97 costs ~SGD1. 

The difference in price is not worth the public shame lah… 

And the fact he drives a Mercs makes it worse.

  • A sole-ful tribute

    Car enthusiasts are an emotional bunch. So, I naturally develop feelings for things on wheels, be it four wheels or two. However, I was surprised to discover that I had become attached to my old pair of sneakers, whose soles are so worn that it hurts to wear them.  That is the unequivocal signal to retire them.
