I'll move this too general car chat.

Looks like a con too me the site looks crap and they a "membership fee" upfront.

Would anyone, and I mean anyone send them a fiver as requested?

That would be a very foolish thing to do. (IMHO!)

fail.... there are so many spelling mistakes on that site it's obviously a scam

Just had a look, found this classic piece of info

Ultra Low Cost Value Unleaded (50 RON)

Especially popular with Rover Metro and Nissan Micra drivers, our 50 RON ULCVU fuel is made from refinery leftovers. This is a very inexpensive fuel indeed as it is actually classified as industrial waste rather than fuel.

It looks like a copy of this site: Petrol Direct - petroldirect.com

Which is a spoof.

Their fuel is EXCELLENT. If you have a squadron of flying pigs.

You'd have thought that if they were serious about conning people out of money then they'd spend at least a little time making it look even a tiny bit authentic?

Please noone send these people money.

At least on that one it says it's a spoof site: here

It increases to £10 in the "Add to Cart" section

Oh that's good, nobody think they would just take the two 50 RON stuff and just distil it into something that contains only octane so removing the rest of the waste? Maybe then cracking the waste down into gas so that can be used.

Perhaps even burning it to power the refinery.

wasnt leaded 90 ron???

wasnt leaded 90 ron???

As I recall, normal 4 star leaded was 98.
