Am I on to something here . Petrol the new redux for diesel lol

LOL! Happens to me every time I get stuck in the 65mph train that is the bottom of the M1 on a weekday - engineers at work tell me that wind resistance increase as the square of the speed, and that slowing down gives much better mpg. Wimps!

Now, where's that 97 RON pump... :D
