Has anyone else tried the various posh diesels that are about - Shell V-Power or BP Ultimate?
I did try BP Ultimate once, about a year ago and thought I got higher mpg (but I was driving on deserted A-roads in Scotland at the time). I'm currently trying Shell V-Power, and mpg seems to have stayed the same or even reduced. Plus the engine sounds more rattly - like it's permanently cold (even though it isn't).
I may have confused the issue by chucking Redex in with it - I didn't think about any possible interactions between it and whatever's in the V-Power.
My hope is that I can find a fuel that does increase mpg. As prices are now so high, the premium stuff is only a few % more, so it's worth having if it increases mpg a bit.
