Well I just think driving slow and low gear changes helps a hell lot and motorway driving!
Apparently BP petrols last longer!?

might have to try that then. i usually use total as its right outside my house, or tesco as its always a little cheaper.
might try shell or bp, maybe even the optimax

think optimax works wel with the FSI.
sumthinglike shell or BP should be better than Total (anyday!)

Yeah well my local BP costs me like 84p/litres, but Sainsbury only 81p, so I better stick to the cheaper one. Can't afford.
Once again the low fuel light came on today. Comes on all the time, I always run it low 'cos I don't want the extra weight with a full tank, no point, wastes petrol and torque.

Well just used BP petrol for the very first time in my life and it costed me a fortune. Didn't really wanna go for it but I was running low (near red line) and I was on the motorway doing 85mph from Manchester.
And there I was at a 'Road Chef' service looking for some petrol and I went for some Unleaded which costed 88.9p/litre!
Well anyway, gave me 1/2 tank for some strange reason and I haven't really noticed much difference - yet? Or is that just different when you use the 'Ultimate' stuff?
