What is a Rover 150?, is it two 75s added together?!!!!

Easy to understand how you could misfuel the Rover 150. I mean, diesel engine at one end with fuel cap on one side, petrol engine at other end and fuel cap on the other. Now, which way round was I driving today?

NB1 Only joking. I have seen this amazing car and I gather it only has an engine at one end, the other end is used as the boot. Just don't ask me which end is which though!

NB2 Hope the AA didn't do your wonderful car any damage if they had to put the wrong kind of fuel in it to film the ad!

NB3 I hope you don't have to pay two lots of vehicle tax for it!

Your comments did make me laugh but no fuel was taken or put in during the filming. I think they are emphasising the fact they are able to deal with any type of vehicle no matter how odd.
