Reply #4 - 08. Apr 2011 at 10:14 It was eye watering enough filling both cars this week.. £85 to fill the Omega with UL at Sainsbury (cheapest place around here) - 131.9 £54 to fill the MR2 with Optimax, because Sainsbury have "No Super Unleaded until further notice" - 141.9 Good job the MR2 gets >31mpg, nearly twice what the Omega gets!
