Just went to fill up with super at the petrol station near me, and it seems to be getting earlier and earlier.........................
The fact that they lock off their 4 furthest pumps, there is one pump in the station that pumps super, and its one of the ones they lock off.
When I asked them why they do it, they replied 'to stop people stealing fuel'
They shut half the pumps off by 1800 tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If someones going to steal fuel, they're as likely to do it in broad daylight.
And to top matters off, 3 filth vehicles raced out of an unbuilt industrial estate with no blues and twos on, like they were racing each other, pricks.

Does your manual tell you to use super?

Not the point really, the fuel station should have all options open to customers. Contact their head office and make them aware of the problem, I think they will be interested to know that they are loosing sales due to it.

I emailed shell about a petrol station before, diesel pissing all over me and the retard in the shop just saying we know about that, should really put a sign up
Shell got back to me quicksmart, asking for my address to pass onto the garage owner.
Fuck that in Glasgow

Between 95-98RON
I use super mainly for the detergents and better quality of fuel, i've never put anything other than super in it and never will, unless i'm forced to i.e. no stations have any in and am short on fuel....

Yeah its more cost effective to do away with moaning customers than to make them happy.

Tesco's closest to me & they are building a new one a minute away from my house.
No Total nearby, never tried their fuel.
No shell near me either now, I work for them anyway so wouldnt feel right giving them my money

I tried the V power diesel and all it did was make the car smoke more and gave me bugger all extra mpg.
Use V-power in the bike though.. Anything that revs to 16k deserves a wee bit of the good stuff..
