Thanks for advice re tyre pressures Adam. I will drop pressure to 23 at the weekend, would I be better making front & rear the same or should it be a couple of pounds more in the rear?

I'll bite...
The fuel pump always draws fuel from the bottom of the tank, weather it's full or empty. My tank is clean anyway (It has a sealed cap and I only ever put petrol in it). Why is yours full of dirt?
You must get fed up with filling up every 100 miles. You'd think they'd put a filter in for people like you with dirty tanks, so you could still use all the fuel. Oh wait, they do!
i have not got any dirt in my tank and i only use good fuel shell vpower+nito i been a a vehicle tech since 1978 and get fed up with people who call you out and when you get there the prats have just run out of fuel ,so we charge them extra for that and i only need to go to the garage to fill up once a week
Fuel does have dirt in ie sand rust from petrol station tanks
Your right it does pick up from the bottom of the tank and there is a filter in the tank iv alway run my cars from full to empty iv never had a problem in 17 years
But i spose its presonal preference to when and where you fill up
