Took delivery of my Magnetic Red Tekna today. Looks good, drives great so far. Before I go and put the first tank full in, there's a message under the filler flap saying "premium unleaded". Does it have to be Premium? Been a few years since I had a petrol car so don't want to bugger anything up.

Just had a look at the pumps on our local Supermarket when I went over for food. Ok it seems 'bog standard' unleaded is 95 octane. Perhaps I was confusing 'premium' and 'super' in my head. Having had diesels for so long I'd got myself backwards about this stuff. Was starting to think this car would cost a fortune to run at Super Unleaded prices :o

Mine runs fine on 95 Ron used asda. shell and bp seems to pick up better on shell and bp. But local asda keeps price down and plenty Nissan staff use asda in company cars

Really? Huh. It isn't for me. It'll be the sodding iPhone not tagging a photo's orientation right again. :cry:

Upside down on my computer (Windows) and phone (Android). However, if I save the picture, it's the right way up. It must be an Apple thing. The car, however, looks very nice.
