I cant help but feel really really smug when i am refuelling my c70 T5.
OK its a bit of a fiddle to put the nozzle on as mine is located on a box section hinged bracket that tucks into the bumper, but once on it is smugness all the way. ![]() just wondered if anyone else gets the smug feeling too?

Any smug feeling I have goes away somewhat when filling up an 80 litre tank with V-Power. The numbers flashing by are just too big for comfort.....

Nope, cant say as I do really.
The Volvo only takes petrol but, the Trans Am is dual fuel and to be honest, is almost always run on petrol anyway.. |

I get all excited burning Vpower, the quicker the better for me. It could be worse, it could be £5 a litre.

Refuelling with LPG... FatLadz? I know what you mean. I'm always bemused at how many people have closed minds - are prejudiced, indeed - against LPG. Still, it's their loss...

Filling with LPG does not make me fell smug normaly as it is still expensive but way cheaper than dirty petrol.
I do fell very smug when some wally is filling with V power next to me and you can them smoke them down the road. LPG is higher octane than V power and gives better perfomance in many turbo cars. Personaly I know I could never run a car on petrol or diesel again - just to darn expensive. |

yes i know what you mean about the extra power
![]() i somehow feel that my tuned calibra turbo 4x4 isnt going to get any fuel put in it for a long long time. i usually run the calibra turbo on V Power and a bottle and a half of millers octane boost to the tankfull. Sod that when i can pay 46per litre in my T5 ![]()

A friend of mine must feel extremely smug, he's running his diesel Landrover on heating oil at 30p a litre (but maybe lpg is cheaper than that?)
