Ultimate fuel works in practice.

Advantages: Widely available. Excellent value for money. Kinder to the environment.
Disadvantages: Looks expensive, not all garages stock Ultimate diesel.

...very suspicious of BP's "Ultimate" advertising campaign, especially its' claims of 10% improved consumption and a 10% reduction in emissions. However I had been running my petrol Omega on 98 Octane Aral "Super" petrol in Germany and Poland and had found marked benifits in terms of performance and economy - certainly well in the realms of a 10% reduction in fuel consumption - that in de-restricted Germany too! I then read that BP had taken over Aral (an East German fuel company originally) and had very quickly started marketing a new fuel - "Ultimate". Having used Shell 98 Octaine which provided a marked improvement in performance but INCREASED fuel consumption I swapped to BP Ultimate and never looked back. At over 100,000 miles when you would expect an engine to start to use more fuel due to sheer wear, mine started to use less...

The best for storing camping fuels

Advantages: Robust and light
Disadvantages: Availability and the screw lid can become stiff

...In times gone by, I used to work in a shop that sold a lot of camping equipment. It was only a matter of time before the camping bug bit me. Having the advantage of reports of equipment used by customers gave me the opportunity to make sure I had the best kit for what I needed. Often I would cycle, so that would mean space and weight would play a major part in making sure that my camping experiences could be as pleasurable as possible. Part of the camping experience is cooking food outdoors, apart from having an open fire (something that most campsites do not like or allow), you will need something to cook food on. Now that leaves three main choices Solid Fuel - Normally either a fuel block that you light or a gel in a can. Bottled Gas - This is usually Butane gas stored in a pressurised container. Liquid Fuels - Normally...

Fuel (ps3) review

Advantages: superb graphics, nice features, track create
Disadvantages: many little bugs that you might notice, cheap AI

...Time to pump up your car with gas as you , explore Fuel, which has the worlds largest ever racing enviroment with a staggering 14,400 square kilometers. The game is set in post global warming America,beset by flooding, hurricanes typhoons and desertifacation, and in these deserted areas racers have gathered, with bikes, buggies, quad bikes, cars and monster trucks, all competing for the chance to win fuel. The gameplay is like most racing games, with checkpoint, cuircut, point to point, timed races, plus helicopter chases to choose between, or you could just cruise around the game, with its great enviromental effects, so far me myslef has experienced, thunder come down and set a tree on fire, crazy dirt pile ups and a typhoon. But as I always say no game is perfect, one of the more annoying desgins is that even though the world...

Review of Fuel (PS3)

Premium economy ?? I think i'll pass !!

Advantages: Nice little extras, Good food, Free drinks
Disadvantages: Not value for money, tiny seats & stingy cabin crew

...This time last year I was booking my holiday to the Dominican Republic with my boyfriend & of course I do all the booking & he shows very little interest until he gets his tickets. At the time of booking both our tickets came to just less than £1000 so I decided we would go for a bit of an extra as it was a special trip our first holiday alone together & we wanted some thing to remember so I opted for the premium economy seats at the price of £195pp not telling my boyfriend I just gave him the final figures to pay. I booked through Portland direct online & thought little of it. About a month later I thought I would go on to the Thomson website (as Portland is an umbrella company of Thomson & they have their own everything!) & see what we would actually be getting for our money & to be honest I was a little disappointed. I didn't expect...

Review of Thomson Premium Economy Seats

Amazing fuel economy

Advantages: Fuel economy, good to drive, nippy in town and able to cruise on motorway
Disadvantages: Don't expect great overtaking

...I bought a two year old Seat Arosa 1.7Sdi (with the "electron and comfort pack" extras) 8 months ago. I really needed a car for work and general town driving and was mainly interested in economy and that it should be reasonably pleasant to drive. The most impressive figure is the fuel economy of this car, despite the price of diesel now being slightly more expensive then unleaded. I get more than 60 mpg out of the car, which I think, is brilliant and really surpassed my expectations. As a comparison I have a Honda Civic 1.4 petrol and the Arosa is over 30 percent cheaper to run in terms of fuel costs. This was my first diesel car and it is nosier when you start up in the morning, but becomes better as the car gets warmed up. Visibility is really good due to the elevated driving position and all the controls are within easy...

Redken Extreme Deep Fuel treatment - does exactly what it says

Advantages: Deep conditioning, strenght, shine. Hair is more manageable, soft and looks more attractive
Disadvantages: None

...I have always had problems with my hair ? even before I started styling it, my hair broke, was very dry and had split ends. So you can imagine what happened to it after relaxing and using a hot iron! Although I use conditioners regularly and occassionally buy treatments, nothing seemed to help until now, and I really mean it. I tried several brands before, but each time was disappointed after spending sometimes lots of money on a product. I saw a review of Redken Extreme Deep Fuel on the Internet and it was mentioning promised exceptional improvement in hair condition lasting for 5-8 washes. The treatment has three main active ingredients: proteins, ceramids and lipids, which are supposed to make the hair stronger, shinier and easier to manage. Encouraged by this, I decided to give it a try, but was very skeptical. After trying...

Review of Redken Extreme Deep Fuel

Alternative fuels. Hydrogen power a cleaner future

Advantages: Clean, no polution, renewable fuel and ecological.
Disadvantages: Big business and oil rich nations.

...by solar panels through a nickel anode and an iron cathode immersed in the water will separate the atoms of Hydrogen and Oxygen from water (H2O). The hydrogen that collects on one and the Oxygen on the other can be collected as the current passes between them, and the process can also be improved with the addition of Sodium Hydroxide to aid the conductivity. This is basic chemistry I know works because I have done this many times, but have not yet hooked them up to solar cell which would need to generate at least 2 volts. DISADVANTAGES. - Worldwide economy - Big business - Oil producing countries - No wars - No eco-disasters - No smog - No pollution ADVANTAGES. - Clean - Much safer then liquid fuel - Cheap fuel (for now) - No adverse emissions - Perpetual - Ecological - Can drink your fuel - Potential of a refill...

Shell Fuel Garage - Burton-On-Trent

Advantages: Friendly Staff, Good Range of Fuels
Disadvantages: Jet Wash Doesn't Work, Isnt Very Good

...Shell Fuel Garage - Burton on Trent What is Shell?? They are a large fuel producing company which includes oil, gas, petrol and diesel, this company has many filling stations across the country and also in other countries too. They are well known for producing the 99octane V-Power and also V-Power diesel which is advertised as Ferrari fuel for the roads. This is probably because Shell sponsors Ferrari so they often help give Ferrari advertising. Shell are one of the leading companies in fuel supplying and I definitely trust them to do provide the best fuels for my cars and also to help improve the environment with improving their fuels to be more environmentally friendly. Shell also have a really useful website with lots of information about what they provide and other things they are part of including environment...

Review of Shell Fuel Garage Burton on Trent

One fossil fuel we CAN consume!

Advantages: Yummy
Disadvantages: Calorific

...Have you guessed yet you're not likely to find many reviews on healthy food from me?! Can I just say thank you to Asda who have just had an amazing offer on Ben and Jerrys, with all the flavours they stocked at £2 a tub. No not a mini tub, a proper full monty sized tub. Obviously I couldn't believe my eyes as they're usually closer to the £5 mark, so justified myself in buying three tubs - how can you choose between the delicious flavours? I bought my favourite Phish Food, Cookie Dough, always a winner, and not having tried Fossil Fuel, it looked my kind of icecream (and it has little dinosaurs - aww!). It's easy to spot in the freezer, as it's in the usual B&J tub, but it's bright yellow with pictures of choclate dinosaurs on the front. I'm making a considered decision not to include nutritional information, because if...

Review of Ben & Jerry's Fossil Fuel

Economy toothbrushes are worth their value

Advantages: Firm Bristles, cheap - 2 for 39p
Disadvantages: Bristles spread out quickly, body not flexible

...The Sainsbury's Economy Toothbrush comes in aq pack of 2 for 39p. They're extrodinarily good value, but are they worth the cost? APPEARANCE: The toothbrushes are white. On viewing, you can tell they must be cheap ones. The plastic extends the whole way up, not changing in appearance once, and the white bristles are coarse and stiff. DURABILITY: For me, this toothbrush is perfect, as I use it very rarely - no, I do brush regularly, but I normally use an electric toothbrush. I use this one when I go visiting places, or to someone elses house, so I don't need the charger. The brush does have its downsides - the body is unbendable, so if you're used to pressing on hard, it may damage your gums. To start with, the bristles work very effectively, probably better than a more exensive one, as they're firm and can dislodge food...
