you do realise supermarket fuel is the same as the likes of texaco,esso etc. the tankers that fill the supermarkets garages up also fill garages that arnt supermarkets.
all the fuel in the uk pretty much comes from the same reffinary anyway.

Im not sure how much extra cos i always vent when fillin to the top. I think £50 is a good guess.
Dont do it then park up, only vent before a longish drive cos your using the expansion space. especially with petrols so i've heard.
I just like slagging it because of the whoo haa they had with their fuel a couple of years ago, to be honest I haven't noticed a massive difference with my car's performance but my Mum's A3 2.0l Tdi runs like a bag of nails on Tesco diesel so she uses BP, plus she has a nectar card too. I'm a clubcard point junkie!
.G.
lol never noticed
i generally tend to fill up at supermarket stations, seems to be cheeper, but rumour has it then store there fuel warmer so it expands, in theory you dont get as much fuel, anyone else heard of this?
yeah supposedly its better to fill up on a cold day, or like you said, at night when its cooler lol.
Ka boom lol
Not sure but thats always been the warning people have givin on here so im just passing it on to be safe.
Theres got to be a good reason for that button to be there, right?
not alot in this country! if you was in the middle of a dessert it the fuel vapour would build up in the tank and your car would be a bit of a time bomb. i used to always vent my 1.2 and i always vent my FR tdi and neither have go ka boom yet

Not bad really though 
since i serviced my 1.2 i've got more mpg which is a big bonus. before i serviced it i had 1/2 a tank and i managed to get 340 miles out of a tank and that was with me driving like the stig. i used to average 300
cant wait to find out what i can get out of it with a full tank now its been serviced

Went on a trip from Glasgow (Scotland) through to down south, stopped in Manchester for a night, went to Alton towers next morning, and drove back up that night, never had to fill up till just after Manchester again. I drive an ibiza cupra tdi, was averaging in between 70 – 85ish, with the odd burst to 130 lol, and managed to get 49.6MPG. think it was about 500 miles out a £47 diesel tank!
