Also he showed me on the Bild newspaper yesterday that there was an article regarding stoppage of distribution of E10 fuel becuase the nationwide rejection of the fuel has now halted production and distribution of the fuel.

Maybe that is why the Esso in Ingolstadt (when I drove down to Munich) had all the old fuels.

I saw on German Tv that this whole Bio fuel E10 thing has been a misserable flop - and only the Bundes is to blame. They were showing how a lot of gas stations had been runing out of SuperPlus fuel while they had plenty of E10! lol The stations had to have special delivers of SuperPlus - entire truckloads worth of SuperPlus! No German wanted to pump that crap E10 gas. Only us dumb Americans (I guess) bought into this E10 thing. Well.. some of us. lol
