Because I want a performance car I can run every day, doing over 20k miles per year. Because I want a car where I won't be out of pocket when I'm doing business miles on petrol expense rates.

I buy the best performance car I can afford to run on these terms so fuel efficiency and servicing are a factor. Different things are important to different people.

But at the same time it is widely recignised that V-Power produces in the region of 10% increase in economy compared to the 6% increase in cost. And on a 60 litre tank you are talking about £4.80 on a £80 fill at 133.9 for unleaded
just make sure you have the 2p a ltr discount loyalty card :bigblink:

So where do you get ones of those as I have V-Power Drivers Club card only? Must admit I use Momentum as well because of Clubcard credit card and points on both the card and fuel. Sheel used to do decent points and their own credit card through RBS Nautilus but then they got greedy.

Is that shell drivers card worth doing? I always forget to take it with me to pay when I'm filling up.

That's it

You have to use a normal card for 3 months with v power then they upgrade you

I've had a v-Power Drivers Club card for 2 years and there is no discount available to me?

I get bonus point vouchers etc and money coupons every quarter but that's it?

That's all I get too ...

I think Santander also do a credit card that offers 3% cashback on petrol purchases.
