V-power

[luke_clifton]

Happy days, just filled up and v-power was 1p cheaper. Now 100.9, i know it's only 1p but made a hell of a difference to what i usually get for the money.

Just checked petrolprices.com and shell @ coxheath is selling v-power for 99.9p per litre, feel gutted now LOL

Might drive down to fill up the RB, I would be saving 2 pence a litre

I normally fill up at Shell Bromley Common. They're charging 101.9p at the moment, but I would save nothing by driving further to get the fuel because of the extra mileage, plus this garage is on the road to/from work so is very convenient.

Well not happy, been using the cheaper priced shell garage for about a week now. and both times i've filled up the car has been almost undrivable. I dunno what there doing with that petrol but something isn't right, i swear if i had a knocklink it would have been on the red light.... Never before have i experianced hesitation that bad, seriously i thought my fuel pump had gone up the fritz it was so bad.

I wanted to make sure it was the petrol before posting this up, but i filled up today in a different garage and the cars running like a dream, absolutly no problems at all, also the petrol smelled stronger at the pumps over this other garage (but that could have just been me lol).

I always fill mine up at the Shell on the spine road in Maidstone, and have no problems so far. Unless you count the particularly rude and annoying staff that is.

Normally do mine at Shell Northfleet or Gravesend, Lion Garage. I did think a couple of times when I filled up the car seemed to go better when it was running on the Lion Garage stuff. Will take a good sniff of the pumps next time lol!! Which garage has the bad stuff?

Is that the shell garage near the town, on the road towards chatham near bluebell hill. Ifso, thats my normal garage too, and never have problems with there fuel and yes staff there are VERY rude.

The garage i got the problems with were Tamarisk Shell near Coxheath. Errr you may not wanna go around sniffing too many pumps as i think you might be carried away in a straight jacket .

It is indeed that one, just before the White Rabbit roundabout if you're coming into Maidstone. Just a smile and a hello isn't that difficult!
