I've just been reading this:

Although i think this proposed move could cause some real headaches for other cars (my M3 for one!, probably also my Civic!), I'm not sure if that means much for our D's or not since they were originally spec'd to run on really low US Octane fuel. Am i right?
This move, if it goes forward, means that as soon as another couple of years, we could see the disappearance of super fuels in the UK, and our good old traditional RON 95 fuel being replaced by a new "cleaner" standard minimum, which *seems* to be a proposed equivalent to around about a 90 RON fuel. If so, and considering i think the D' is spec'd to be a minimum of 91 RON (i think), does that mean a headache for our D's too?
