Petrol Changes
Is everyone aware that from 1st September the default form of petrol at UK filling stations will be E10, containing up to 10% ethanol? Some older cars will not be compatible with this and will need to use the more expensive E5 petrol, ie premium grade.
You can check if your car is compatible here:

but there's no harm in reminding people again anyway.
A car would have to be really old though to be affected by the change. My 16-year-old Saab can run on E10 with no problems.
The pumps at my local Morrison's filling station have been labelled 'E10' (for 'regular' petrol) for quite some time now. I've no idea though whether they're actually delivering E10 already or if they've just got a bit ahead of themselves with changing their pump signs.
