I should hope they'd be laughing too hard to remember to change the premium :D And after all the G40 is a supercharged 1.3 litre itself...

3 and a half cylinders, yes, at least for the first couple miles these days. It's acting a bit rough round the edges and im hoping its just a spark plug / dizzy cap or rotor problem. Chugs like a goodun. (In fact, after last night i'm considering revising that to 2-and-a-half-to-3 cylinders as one has started to permanently miss until warm)

Don't forget the de-cat if you go for an early mk3 or a mk2 over the otherwise more powerful later models...
