    To Super Diesel Or Not To Super Diesel?

    So 'Garage' people and those supposedly in the know tend to recommend using super diesel. Of course they don't have to pay the extra premium when I am filling up! The price differential is quite extreme so I started wondering if it is really worth using Super Diesel or Diesel plus, whatever name...
