Used it quite a few times

Being fairly sad about such things I tend to monitor my fuel performance during trips on the cars computer.

The car used to get Total super unleaded as it's fuel, but more recently having heard about the benefits of Optimax on other sites, I have been using Optimax, on a long trip cruising at 85mph the car used to get 23.5 mpg, but on the last two trips to scotland the car has averaged nearly 25 mpg.

Round town is harder to measure as heavy traffic or using the loud pedal too often brings it down, but it still seems to improve consumption by around 1-2 mpg
