Own personal view is that I think you'll be wasting your time with V Power plus Millers.
Bog standard shell plus Millers is what I normally use.

Funny you should mention this. I usually use standard diesel with Millers.
But past few tank fulls I decided to go with V-Power (as diesel price went up but V-power stayed same for some reason by me).
And although with V-Power it seems to be smoother, and runs much better when cold.
It just doesn't seem to be as rapid with the fuel delivery if that makes sense? Car doesn't seem as aggressive compared to when I've got standard fuel with Millers in.
But I dunno, only been through 2 tank fulls of V-power and half way through my 3rd now. Not sure how much V-Power has to go through for it to "work" properly.

as for millers , the £12 you spend will do a few tank fulls of diesel
halfrauds trade card is £10.39

Would be interesting to see the difference on the rollers between just v-power and normal diesel with millers added. Bet they give very similar results!
I must admit when i had my leon it did smoke alot less when running shell and millers but i dont notice much difference in my truck.
Quite interesting read & test that mate!
I have noticed I get no smoke at all now with V-Power, but with standard diesel and Millers I do get a very very slight bit of smoke when booting it in 1st or 2nd gear.
i quite like that strong chemicle smell
I too enjoy the smell
I can actually confirm it does after once spilling it on my hands and then eating a sandwhich 
I quite like the smell of Millers too which was quite fortunate when a few weeks ago a gallon carton fell off the shelf and leaked all over the garage floor. Not quite fifty quids worth luckily.
Could get whiffs of it in the house and Stinky was not best pleased. The smells gone now and now certain areas of the garage floor have increased cetane rating.

I used standard + millers and for nearly 2 years and it was only 1 or two bottles, a lot cheaper than using premium diesel, which didn't seem to do much premium.
Having said that, I know run an LCR so whatever you do seems nice and cheaper to me lol.

Just out of interest where is the cheapest place to get Millers?
I've always bought mine from Ebay for just under £10 for the 500ml bottle.

Cheers for that, didn't realise he was selling Millers!
Is the 'new formula' ecomax much different to the sport 4 does anyone know?
Or is it a case of same stuff, new label?
i think it is the case with same stuff different label.. although the bottle is slightly better design.
Does anyone here 'double dose' ? ...it says you can on the bottle. Anyone noticed any improvements with double dosing.. But yeah, std diesel and millers all the way

Yeah I've heard a lot of positive things about the new bottle design, old one was crap, always leaking everywhere! Have a lovely smelling boot though!
I tried 'double-dosing' but didn't notice much different to be honest. May have made difference in the long run i.e. cleaning out the engine a bit more? But performance/mpg wise it seemed the same.
But that is in a 110 tdi engine, may be different for the 130 or 150 pd engines? I dunno!
