Car was indeed smoother more responsive and cracked 40mpg an a run to Futurescope, an increase of about 15% over what i would have expected given the road conditions/speed.
That's amazing! So the extra cost could potentially be recouped with greater economy? Interesting! I may give it a spin the next time I fill up.

P.S. Did you like Futurescope? I went a few years ago when we were staying in the Loire Valley. Was a good day out!
