V Power Ferrari collection

[SteveH]

Filled up this afternoon, RS6 has an 80L tank and I put 82.7L in!!! most fuel ever in one fill in three years of ownership so I must have been low!! Practically £100 handed over, the guy gave me a handful of ferrari's as compensation.

I have five in my collection so far.

Here's the small print, you ought to get 2 cars if you buy 60 Litres of V Power. . .

"Between now and 7 May 2008 you’ll receive Shell Drivers’ Club points and an extra reward when you purchase Shell V-Power. Fill up and pick up an official Ferrari scale model car FREE with every 30 litres of Shell V-Power you buy#.
There are six different Ferraris to collect: Ferrari Formula One 2005, 360 Spider, F430, F50, Enzo and Superamerica, a stunning display of performance and design.
You can also claim a Ferrari model car FREE with purchases of 4 litre packs of Shell Helix Ultra 5W40 and 5 litre packs of Shell Helix Plus or Shell Helix Super. Alternatively you can pick up any one of the six model Ferrari cars for £1.99 each and collect the set.# "

I'm not a solicitor but fook me they must employ RETARDS cause its there in black and white, if i weren't pissed i'd email Shell again pointing out they should re market as MORE THAN 30 LITRES you get 1 free car!

When i went to fill up today i stopped at £35. Then restarted and put in another £35. When i went in to pay she asked why had i done it ,"Did you do it to get 2 cars " Yes i said .. you now get 1 with every 30 lt , so 2 with 60lt and 3 with 90lt.

Not what they said last week ..

Got 2 or 3 of the entire range now, so i can't be arsed to collect them anymore.

[GardinerG]

they are just to take your mind off the fact that the garages are now charging nearly £1.20 a litre.

[RSVI]

TBH though, they're really crap build quality.

If I were the Ferrari boss I'd go ape sh!t they were promoting Ferrari with such cr@p models.

Ps.

Got 4 now but tyres keep twisting off, put them in a high cupboard as I'm fed up with my son asking me all the time to put the tyres back on.


I'll be getting more after work though as more fuel is needed, not sure if i can get 60 litres in this car though, I'll give it a go though

[D10DON]

Nine now! Off to Southampton tomorrow so will be collecting another one for my double set!

That'll only be around £350 in fuel for 10 cars, bargain!!

Funny thing is my local shell is actually missing out on sales from me as i'm sticking to the 30 litre rule and fueling on the hoof elsewhere.( no arguments, lighter car, more mpg and pace!)

[Turbo Joe]

Only got the one so far, forgot to collect others from previous visits to fill up.

Gutted just filled my car up tried to squeeze the 60ltrs but only got 55ltrs (£62.00 )in so only had the 1 car, my car was showing only 10 miles left and was on the bottom of the red, so how many ltr tank does the RS4 B5 have?

Fill up at the Shell garage in Chandlers Ford (near Waitrose) - best price locally for V Power.

I believe it is a 62 ltr tank if I am not mistaken!

[D10DON]

Filled up in Chandlers Ford, 5 miles range left showing, only got 58 litres in! Bugger.

[rolskii]

I got 4 ... still boxed tho ... only squeezed £62 in .... trying for 2 cars per fill up .... no chance ....

[Peakz]

I'm half way through getting a second collection now, I've been giving them away to folks with kids but I might have to try one out . . .

It's lousy how they don't give you two cars for 60 Litres of juice.

Did you slide the button in the filler neck?

I filled at Chandlers Ford yesterday lunchtime, pump stopped at 35 litres so I slid the button and got an extra 5 litres in!
