For the record I blew my 167 Euro tank of fuel in less than 45 minutes.
Only get 8 to 10 MPG up over 160mph!

Best money ever spent though!

I thought I would be OK in using up some of the spare carbon not burned by all the RS6 owners who keep their cars in the garage or driveways ......

I'm sorry but being "Green" and driving an RS6?

Impossible.....

PS I do use Borris's Bikes to get around London so that makes up for it by not driving in town

Saturday before my journey to watch the rugby I was on fumes, I put in 80.6 litres of V-Bastard that'll be £112.03 thanks.
Old St roundabout, London. <beep>.

I cycle to work every day, 7mins each way, done.
