if you like filling up every 200klms then go for it.

I have found that the best with rover v8s is to advance the timing slightly and run only 95 and 98 ron petrols.

EDIT: Sorry I may have misunderstood, just want to clarify that I assumed this is the ethenol blend petrol???

I dont. Even if you have an 80 litre tank and the fuel is 4cents a litre cheaper you only save around $3.20
