Agreed... nothing beats good old ULP... "A motorist whose car was left without [power after filling up with the E10 told 2UE that he feared his engine, which he said is worth $50,000, could be ruined."

Well then please tell me why you'd put E10 in a car with a $50k engine... ._.

Btw, nice typo Daily Telegraph >.>

    Haha, gotta love small little cars, my little POS daily:

    Image

    98 is $2.289/L
    91 is $2.119/L

    Not a huge difference, but it's nice to be able to throw some 91 into the starlet vs the 98 in the FTO.
