We sort 4 or 5 a year, you can get it with your breakdown cover . but if you have run it then your into big bucks, I have done it myself when my head was elsewhere 
main dealers will just change the whole fuel system

Must remember to not put the chip fat in the Panda....... I put petrol in a diesel once but realised when I hadnt quite finished so filled it with diesel and took a chance. It was very sluggish but didnt seeem to have any ill effects. If it happened again I would pour a gallon of oil in it as well. Smoke the neighbourhood out but engine would probably be okay. Computer on a modern car would probably not let you do that I guess, just go into limp mode.
