I filled my GF's BMW 120 D M sport with a full tank of V power last year.
I managed to drive it home (10 miles) , drain it. I filled it with diesel and never had any problems. err on the side of caution and don't start it.

Ok then, drain the tank then fill it to the brim with fresh diesel. Crank it until it starts it will smoke like buggery for a while. Let it idle for about 30 minutes then take it out for a drive.
