Premium diesel is designed for high performance diesel engines and is cleaner.

Premium diesel is not about getting away from the lights quicker or even better economy.

Having said that there is only very limited premium Caltex in Vic and I now buy standard BP diesel from one of two local stations and see no reason to change. I did buy discount diesel for a while and it cost me $1500 for a new fuel pump so it wasn't really much of a discount.
