No fuel :roll:
Had to take it easy on a 40 mile run home so I have enough fuel to get to work for a couple of days.
29.4 mpg was better than expected.
How are you guys doing?

I got the train to work this morning, my commute is a little under 50 miles each day and I only have half a tank (avarage 23mpg). I really really do not want to get caught up in queue for petrol.
Saying that I got soaked this morning!! It took just a long by train and cost almost a much...

Managed to get petrol but could only get BP standard 95ron instead of the usual 99 Shell v power. Manual says 95 minimum so I assume this should be ok in the car but will drive conservatively just in case

Things seemed to have eased around the Birmingham area.

Drove onto my local Tesco filling station around 7pm last night - no queues, drove straight to the pump and filled up with £60 of the good stuff - no limit. Driven passed an Esso garage today, a couple of cars on there, some nozzles blanked off but the green ones were still operational. Definately easing now.
