Hello to all toyites

New member here been lurking for ages. Now for my little tale

Over the years i have decried all the people who have missfueled, thinking it's not possible ,(SOD&Murphy) must be writing a new law just for me.

Went to Shell at chester sevices on the M56 pulled up at the deisel pump (Vpower) started filling got to 35liters saw the price(1.12pl) blessed the mother in law, gone so far might as well continue 58liters =£68 pounds.

Thought it weird that Vpower has a green nozzle,paid continued my journey.

Got to lymm and bang no power just died all warning lights on looked in my rearview and i thought "jesus is that my turbo". called the man who can took me to lindop br's in queensferry and told by "Steve" in service dont worry your not the only one we had in today, i think he said they had sorted 4 or5 that day. 11.30am the next day the car is ready(spot on in my book) £183 for the job, thinking 2k+ thanking the mother in law again. MORAL It can happen to the best of us even with 10 years as a spanner man i just don't use Shell now.

Top Marks for the lads @ lindop :D :D :D

PS After that i also got the fuel back

now all i have to do is slow the bl**** ride on mower down
