Quote from BBC website this morning "The government is consulting on making E10 - which contains less carbon and more ethanol than fuels currently on sale - the new standard petrol grade."

It's horrible stuff!   I always use Shell petro,l high-octane, it's about £1.41 a litre.   Shell currently use less Ethanol that ANY other fuel supplier.
