I Hate My Local Shell garage

There is always a massive que what ever the time of day or night you go.
The que consists of crap cars buying cheap fuel, the cheapest around hear to be fair.
Is it beyond the wit of man that we could have a separate pump for those buying Vpower ? It's not like us premium buyers can go anywhere else.

Rant over

Cheers

Sorry if that sounds a bit snobish

At least yours had some, waited for 10 mins just to find they had ran out....

Went to BP next door cause I wasn't going to put normal ( knats p**s ) in...

[rj scotty]

Feel for ya

BP= more money for slightly worse fuel.

I'm paying a premium price I expect a premium service

As a side note I saw one driver filling hear car from a pump on the opposite side to hear fuel cap, trialling the hose across hear paint work ! ignorant bloody pigs.

I do that, but don't let the hose trail all over the car. Just park the car correctly at the pump and it is easy. I laugh at the idiots who don't have enough common sense to do this but instead queue for 10 minutes.

That's because their scared to death when they pull the nozel over it aint goner reach, and then they look stupid

Far safer to stay in car for 10 mins and wait for a pump on correct side.
Note as queer as folk

i read elsewhere that Shell had officially ran out of v-power...

^^^^ interesting as I had to bypass both of my two locals due to lack of vpower and ended up just making it to tesco for their 99 brew. Refuse to put BP ultimate in as I've seen it perform worse than regular unleaded from shell on the dyno.

Now you tell me...

I find Tesco 99 is better than V-Power.

Got a link to the Shell running out of V-Power?

My RS2 runs terrible on "BP" petrol. It hessitates, misfires under load & kills the spark plugs if driven for any distance using the power. Runs perfect on Shell "V-Power", in fact it will run ok on most standard 95ron petrol with only a slight loss in power it just won't tollerate "BP" i don't know why. Anyone have any ideas why?

And yet when the 'gear' peeps did that test BP came out worse than V-power but better than standard....
