I have to admit that I have noticed that I'm no where near using the fuel pump as much anymore, I've had 30 quid in the Astra for about 2 weeks now. Brilliant.

£13 a week saving in my case amounts to a damn good night out if spread over 12 months or so!

That would pay my Insurance, tax & a service for a year with still enough change to get messy in town!!
