The local filling station have just introduced it, but I don't use is, coz my OCD means I have to stop on a round pound, or 50p!

I also keep a spare load of disposable gloves in the car.......... Thumbs Up Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Well my l322 goes off road, and I mean serious stuff. Just have a spare set of 19's fitted with mtrs that are scuffed and scratched and chunked but that's the point! People are just as stupid with petrol if you watch, its just petrol evaporates but slowly strips the paint away Wink FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Like someone has already said, what difference does it make if there's diesel on the floor, you will still stand in it to put your more superior petrol in?

United Kingdom 2016 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Santorini Black

Just seen a couple of 5.0 v8 disco4's on the bay/autotrader the other day. Lhd tho.

I havent had a petrol car for a while now and have turned into a total derv perv.

I love the tdv8 and the pulling power, have a few things to tow round here and the tdv8 is spot on.would love the sc but as I manage only high 20's mpg in the Skoda, I dread to think of the amount of petrol I would use. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Yeah, tis true Rolling with laughter

But most fuel stations still have petrol only pumps. Rather irritatingly they also have diesel pumps which only serve the premium expensive stuff. (like any of it's cheap Sad )

Mind you. I'd soon get over any OCD if there was someone willing to fill the car for me. Attended service.....those were the days. Mr. Green
