Plug Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 My local Shell garage has been out of action for a couple of weeks as they are replacing, well, everything really. All the pumps have been torn up, the tanks have been dug out, etc. This is not good as it's the only place for miles around that sells optimax. I have been forced to downgrade to Texaco super as it's the best I can get.. I have been topping up on a little and often basis.. a tenner a time, we all know how far that goes. Today the Mrs. and I went shopping to a town some 20 miles distant, but I know of a BP garage on the outskirts.. result. A tankful of ultimate will tide me over, thinks I, until the Shell garage is refurbished. I hope it bloody does.. 99.9p a litre!!! Perhaps next time I'll try filling it up with something cheaper, such as 20yo single malt Grrr... Plug Link to comment
