I'm the same but just go to the next pound.

I don't shake the nozzle as such, just tap it on the filler neck a few times to get rid of the drips :smiley:

A quick couple of shakes is enough.

I used to try and round up to the nearest £5 or whole pound but since I have the GTI, I just fill the tank every time. Especially since I usually end up buying a Fry's Turkish Delight too.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I let all the drops out, then lift the hose a little to clear that as well  :wink:

I bet you hadn't said that now. :signLOL:

the cut off is in the nozzle so lifting the pipe makes no difference unless you press the nozzle which then pumps more fuel though and adds to the price.

Always worth giving it a shake, dont want to dribble - nothing worse than splash back
