    I filled up with this for a change this week but have yet to notice any benefits. I'm keeping an eye out to see if I'll get more miles out of a tank.

    Does anyone else use this and have they seen any benefits?

    I put it in a transit van by mistake once i noticed the top speed had increased by about 10mph. But i think it is a rip off at nearly 10p a litre more. makes me sick when you here the fuel companies returning a £14 Billion pre tax profit.

    I didn't notice how much mroe expensive it was when I started filling!

    I've not seen any gains yet, though I'm only 2/3rds of the way through the tank so I'll see how many extra miles I get from it.

    Hagis, what is your car?

    I paid a criminal £1.21 a litre for V Power in Preston a couple of weeks ago when normal 95 was £1.03. I don't use anything other than V Power in my Octavia and bully the wife about using at least BP Ultimate 97 in her Golf 2. If she uses 95 it knocks under load.

    I filled my A6 up with it once. I thought it made it slightly quiter under acceleration, but my wife said she couldn't notice anything. So I don't know if I'm kidding myself?
