Can I use unleaded with a bit of diesel in it in my Citroen?
I have put 55 litres of unleaded petrol with five litres of diesel in my car. I have had it drained into five-gallon drums. Would I be able to use this in a P-reg Citroen?

If you are prepared to take the risk of clogging up its fuel system, yes. The car is not worth a great deal more than the petrol.
