Choosing a diesel vehicle can be a very smart decision as it gives significantly better fuel economy than petrol engines. With today's fuel prices, this is without a doubt, a great benefit.
In order to further add to the benefits of diesel driving, we have developed Shell Diesel Extra, which is specially formulated to give you extra engine protection, at no extra cost.
