I'd use it, just down mix it with 20ltrs of fresh.

Have used fuel thats been stored over winter and its been fine.

Anyone want 50 litres of LRP thats been sitting since the 2000 fuel protests?

I've asked Pat Herbourn about this. His opinion is that fuel stored in the winter is OK for a few months as there is less evaporative loss of lighter components which would lead to a reduction of the RON value. In summer there will be more evaporative loss and caution is advisable. Dilution with fresh seems reasonable, just don't use stored fuel for a track day. Alternatively I'd just put it in my runabout which only runs on NUL.

If you sell it don't forget to declare the substantail profit made

Save it for when it all runs out or for the next tanker drivers' strike. You could then auction it off on S-Net or E-Bay.
