No fuel, him

READER David Haining tells us: "A guy in the pub was describing the haggling involved in buying his new car.

After persuading the salesman to include a couple of free extras, he suggested that a full tank of petrol would clinch the deal. 'I'm sorry sir, I couldn't go that far,' replied the salesman, 'But what I will do is knock £200 off the price.'"
