I like the analogy, but all fuel is produced to a certain specification, I grant you some could be better than others, but arn't we being a bit anal about it?. |

The only station in town is Esso and is always 8-10p per litre dearer than supermarkets or major brands, hence I fill when in nearest main town some 22 miles away. Usually Tesco or Shell.

I have been following this thread with interest and decided to give the super Diesel a try, only had a couple if half tanks yet but the performance seems better but not noticed any improvement in economy but that could be a consequence of the perceived better performance, used Total Excellium not sure if it's better or worse than V power and Ultimate or not.

As I think I've posted before anyone who has fully expensed fuel on my employers company car scheme is limited to the ordinary diesel, someone with more brains than me has worked out ( probably the fuel company card issuer who log mileage and purchases) that there is no real cash benefit over a vehicle lifetime in using it. To be honest 95% of our fleet is diesel and they get changed at 4 years or 80,000 miles and you never hear of an engine problem. So our Freelander gets Sainbury's and when there is a 10p a litre off coupon that beats any mileage improvement you may or may not get with super fuels. 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership
