Premium fuel - is it worth it?
For some time you have suggested that using Shell V Power unleaded is well worth the extra cost due to general improved performance and mpg.
As Shell has launched "Shell fuel save" unleaded, do you still feel that it is a worthwhile benefit to pay the additional cost for V Power?

I'm using V-Power petrol in my FIAT 500 and Fuelsave diesel in my Mazda 5 diesel. The FIAT is currently doing 56mpg. The Mazda is doing 45.
