On another note , I tend to find that the car is a lot more fun when the tank is nearly empty. I guess this is down to less weight! , mind you gets a bit scary on twisty bits!

Yeah should have stated on earlier posting BP ultimate up here is costing 100.9 a litre and my red light was on when I got to the garage, usually try and fill it up as much as possible. The redex also helps with fuel economy, prefer Optimax but the Shell garage locally has closed. :cry:

Is it worth the extra money putting super unleaded in.
I have allways put premium in but i allways put super in on my bike.

Yeah I think the super unleaded is worth it, always think runs abit better with that, mind you now up to £101.9 for it here so not getting a lot for your money. Well my light finally came on at 321 miles yesterday which I think is pretty good :)

I agree, thats why I mostly just put 10-15 pound in and not fill the tank up unless I need to, every little helps :lol:
