Venezuela 2 ppl...

Petrol in Venezuela is just 2 pence a litre. My initial plan of a milk tanker inside a container probably wouldn't work as they now use x-ray at the docks, today's daytime TV revealed. Do we have any experienced smugglers on the forum? Or indeed anyone with remote beachfront property?
And while i'm at it a source for a UK based whisky still supplier would be handy too.
Maybe I'm best contacted by the PM system, eh?

Seems to be about 12¢ for a US gallon or 3.17¢ per litre. Even an old 426 Hemi would be economical at that price.

Re: Venezuela 2 ppl...

Duty on petrol is 58p and as far as I am aware that is the only duty that is added if it's "imported" then adding 20% VAT and we would still be well over 60p per litre better off!

Anyone know how to sail a stolen supertanker from Venezuala? :-)
