As a person who uses BioFuels whenever possible, i find it frustrating that i have to make a 80Km round trip to fill up my car with E10 Unleaded, having asked the relevant ministers both state and federally why service stations aren't required to have an e10 pump for those wishing to use alternate fuels and being told mandatory rules will not work.
Of course mandatory e10 availability will work, if the motorists are given a choice between purchasing e10 unleaded or normal unleaded i bet most would choose to purchase e10, especially with the 3cpl price difference.
I run a 2000 AU2 Falcon sedan and when using e10 i regularly get an extra 50km out of a tank of fuel, the car runs smoother and has better pick up, some service stations reject this by saying that no difference can be shown and they are scared of selling a product which will harm the cars engine.
Unless it is made mandatory for all service stations to stock and sell e10, then alternate fuels will go the same way as beta format videos where the format was superior but was plagued with scaremongering.
