I also rate BP Ultimate which they have in the Safeway garage just off Manor Way.

I filled the car with Optimax before going to Avon Park to do some drag racing. What a surprise..no difference.

Well it wouldn't .... it's an Allegro!

KIDDING!

I don't use the stuff to go faster... just to stop the bugger running like a tractor!

Haven't seen your TVR these past two days. have you changed your route? First two days I use the Zed and no sign of you.

I used BP Ultimate a few weeks ago and thought that did make a difference but it was slashing down at Avon park and I never got the chance to do a dry run. The Optimax really made no difference at all to the point where I wondered if they'd run the ordinary unleaded to the Optimax pump to make a fat profit at my expense. That was from Pentwyn too.

I was just thinking the same thing about you.

I leave the centre about 7.15-7.20. Some days I go over Caerphilly mountain, sometimes up the A470- depends where I'm working. Oh yes.. and I'm sh7t in the mornings so if I forget to wave It's nothing personal.. It's just I'm still asleep!

[LuS1fer]

The other half gets later every morning. we started out leaving for work by 7, then 7.10, then 7.20. We always go over the mountain. I thought about it because it's hard to wave to the other side of the road from a lhd car but I had the roof off the past two days so I was ready with the flailing arm.

[blueyes]

Over the mountain... that's Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. I'll keep looking.

p.s. If she won't get out of bed threaten to burn her shoes. Good luck!

Lu51fer are you in a chambers in Cardiff? I work close to the main ones but havent seen your car

[LuS1fer]

No. I work in Cardiff but the car is parked in a company car park. When it rains, we use the Astra. He he.
