the govenment knows damn well increasing the price wont reduce our usage of fuel but will gladly reap the extra tax gained under been green the biggest con ever

i have never noticed any difference in quality of petrol i have bought, from Shell, Asda, Esso, Tesco etc, they all seem the same to me.
Our current car wants to run the expensive 99 ron stuff, it gets 95 and is happy with it. I have had several cars that need the special stuff and all have run fine on petrol bought anywhere, even supermarkets.
