Single cab
Good fuel economy
Aircon / electric windows
Half ton is enough, 1 ton is ok too
About 100000km on the clock, not more than, say, 5 years old
Not a high risk...
I recently moved up to the Free State and here I am being offered 93 or 95 octane unleaded fuel for my cars. In the Western Cape I was using 95 octane. What now? Do I continue using 95 or should I step down and go with the cheaper 93 octane?

Hi there everyone. I've had a pretty frustrating problem with my Opel Corsa since 2 weeks ago.
Any time I accelerate the car, there is a burbling/stuttering sound coming from the engine and it lacks power, even at pedal-to-the-metal. It almost feels like a cylinder is not firing. Then again...
Hi Guys,
Thanks for those that helped on the oil leak issue I had, all fixed now.
I don't know is this is just my Corsa, but this thing uses fuel like crazy, in fact I'm pretty sure my father gets better mileage on his Disco 1 V8 than me. :erm:
To fill up the tank is about R450 - R470...

I am trying to see what kind of mileage I can get out a one tank. After two weeks I finished my first attempt with 603km from one tank, resulting in 7.5l per 100km. This was mostly in rush hour traffic with one 150km weekend trip.
What I was wondering about is will you save more if you switch...
I drive an Uno and found that mixing my petrol 80% leaded (LRP) with 20% unleaded allows me to drive significantly further per tank. I always put R100 in whenever I fill up. Filling up with only unleaded or only leaded I can only get about 80kms from R100, but when mixing I can get up to 120kms...
So I am travelling to Cape Town for Christmas and New Year and Tweede Nuwe Jaar :D
We planned to stop and overnight in Beaufort West. It's a lovely town with loads of friendly people ... or so it seems at face value.
