Hi, Did anyone try this fuel? Seems promising from the adverts that's going around...

They had to change the name after Caltex delivery got mixed up with Shell.

Just buy diesel from truck stops. They are nearly 60c cheaper per liter so fancy additives won't bother you in the slightest.

I've never really noticed any extra power or mileage from using the "better" diesel. The car does puff less visible smoke out the back though when using it, so I do, because apparently it's better for the engine i.e. less polutants, greater interval between services etc. The whole sulphur content thing.
