Lead replacement petrol
just been to local garage to fill up and they are selling lrp petrol @ 89.9p per litre. but unleaded is 106.
so if you have a older car it is cheaper to run than a modern car.

LRP can also destroy a cat and shouldn't be used in a car with one. No idea why though.
Where is the garage with it that cheap? Probably trying to sell it off as the tax is still the same as unleaded (or slightly higher) so there
can't possibly be a profit in them at that price.

Did you buy it at this price or had the '1' falledn off before the '8' on he notice board.
