How to stop us misfuelling?

On your recommendation, we've just bought a Yaris diesel. Many people seem to have filled their car with petrol by mistake. Although we've had diesels in the past and can't imagine doing it, many people do make this mistake, possibly out of habit. What do you think is the best way of stopping ourselves doing this?

Buy a new Ford, Citroen, BMW or Honda with a misfuel prevention device. But you can also buy them aftermarket. In this directory under 'Misfuel Prevention': www.honestjohn.co.uk/useful-websites/parts-accesso.../
