been for another push bike ride today to stock up - only 50 miles return this time to Mansfield and back - went prepared this time and managed to get 12 bottles in the panniers - less than £17 for 12 bottles - has to be worth it! Now putting it in my vw t5 camper and the wife`s golf as well as the disco so need to keep the stock up thinking about putting some in the heating oil as apparently this is now low sulpher - anyone know if this is a good idea or not?

Hi AJM,
Think it's only in Tesco filling stations that are next to Tesco Extra stores.

Think you sll need to write a letter of complaint to Tesco, £1.48 up to £7.50 over night, that is a very big rise and stinks of profiteering, all write and it may make a diffrnece.MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

I think it's been been marketeering "if that's not a word ? I apologise" ploy !
There's probably going to be a miracle castrol Diesel additive released next year, claiming to do do most if not all of the wonderous things mentioned on this here and other forums
Castrol ELIXR
I'll patent that one and second guess on........
Castrol Diesel additive ? That's got my name on it ?
Real time road testing and we have been the mules .......... I wonder
It's a shame its ended, its been running for the last 3 months
If I'd have know it was going to end I'd have stockpiled another 13 bottles.......
After stocktaking earlier to-day it appears I have 187 litres in the garage and 2 litres in the boot,Only dead fish go with the Flow !
