I remeber in Evo when they tested the fuels they reckon that one of the most important things is that the fuel is fresh as it quickly deteriorates. Your best bet is therefore is use the busiest filling station you can find!

That'll be the supermarkets, then - why do people queue at them - like flies around $h!t !!!!  :sick:

either way I'd beat you all in a race cos you'll be stopping every 5 minutes to fill go! GO DIESEL  :grin:  :tongue: :laugh: :laugh:

Nah, the only reason you'll stand a chance, is because we'll have to keep stopping to clear your soot from our windscreens!  :shocked:  :laugh:  :evil:  :grin:

mine doesn't soot thank you very much :smug: well.......... not as much as others  :smiley:

As much as I love my PD150 I'm still looking forward to going back to the responsivness of petrol.  :embarassed: But you're right, I'll have to be stopping a whole lot more to fill up. Still at least I  won't be sooting up TTs windscreen when I pass him.  :wink:

And which particular windscreen might that be ??  :smug:  :smug:

So have we come to some sort of agreement/conclusion as it which fuel is the best?
Alot of opinions so far with some people differing their opinions....

- BP Ultimate (is that RON98?)
- Shell V-Power (is that RON98?)
- Total Supreme Unleaded (is that RON98?)
- Tesco RON99
?

Unfortunetly, my local Tesco only does RON97 (which i had to put in yesterday).
