Filled up with the new stuff on Sunday, haven't noticed any difference yet, but haven't VTECd yet. Doubt there's any difference anyway.

The answer I got was

"I don't know love, I just push the buttons on the till."

Went to the garage this morning and they were all out of V-Power and the guy in front me had someone broke everything with his card. They couldn't reset the pumps for fuel delivery, do transactions etc. for about 10 mins. :lol: ideal at 8:55 when my first class starts at 9.

stopped at shell station near me to try the new nitro stuff - guy who tends the forecourt says heres a voucher for 10p off per litre :shock: - just got to spend £40 or more - thats easy with a lude you know :lol:

wonder if their doing a bit of a pro on the new nitro vpower - worth asking if you stopping in at a shell station anytime soon :)

Tsk tsk. Terrible attitude. Low paid simple jobs don't means the person is a total idiot!

I will admit I did doubt they woul know the technical info because for minimum wage I didn't expect them to care, but you should know a little bit about what you're selling ;)

Comments like that are why I wasn't allowed back on several sites when I was on the tools. :lol: Site agents don't appreciate being called a rhubarb whilst you go about proving you don't just do stuff up and you actually have a bit of intelligence about you.
