I read something a while back that said there would be 'dramatic' drop off in performance of E10, but no ones picked up on it... cheers

well it still goes "vroom" well enough but I have this unshakeable feeling that i put more juice in to go vroom in the colder weather
That is incidentally backed up by the fuel calculator on my ultraguage which is consistently showing 2-4% more fuel going in than the car was previously doing - last year had no such difference 05 D3 V8 HSE, LR Passion tree bars, wildbear compressor guard, LRP switch panel, ARB rear locker + compressor, Trigger 6 shooter electrical system

Unless someone put it on a dyno I’d be hesitant to believe such claims.
FWIW, in -20 the vehicle does move quite quickly from 0 to 100 in/h, just like in the summer

it was in a motoring mag from a person bringing in E10 - better for the environment, even though you will use more?? cheers
