Ben, I've been doing 800 - 1000 miles a week the last few weeks, and normally do 500 a week, so I notice when a tank lasts me particularly longer than another. I dont change my driving style either.

Plus....I'm not gay

When I'm talking MPG increase I mean 60 to 64 average over a full tank.

I have found it to be true, if i go to the BP and even tho i pay more for the fuel it seems to last me longer then if i go to morrisons,tesco or asda.

What if your car hasn't got a clear coat?

I agree. Partly the reason I go Sainsburys or BP.

my van goes further on shell v power diesel by a few more miles, it works out about the same as using cheaper diesel so i preffer to use v power even though its more expensive its better for the engine i think, also my freinds evo has a ecu that detects something when shit fuel is used as it holds the car back so you cant thrash it and blow it up, it is fine with tesco v power but tesco and bp ultimate make it hold back even though there suposedly better fuels, shell ftw!

Greenergy. I know them boyos.

I've recently been on the development team to make a Burner to utilise the Glycerin waste product as a fuel, that is created when they produce Biodiesels.
