My local Tesco hasn't had any 99 for 2 weeks now ! They've had deliveries of 95 and diesel but no 99. I've gone back to using V-Power again for the moment.

Anyone else having similar problems ?

 

Plenty of the stuff in York. Have you enquired as to why the shortage

 

Plenty down here in Dorset (Bournemouth/Poole) and 97 as well

 

Haven't been in there to ask,went about 3-4 days in a row to get some and then gave up and went back to shell. I go past the Tesco's everyday and have checked to see if they have any which the haven't for best part of 2 weeks !

A mate of mine said it happened a while ago for 2-3 weeks and they just kept telling him they didn't know why they didn't have any and had no idea when they would be getting anymore !

 

2 Tescos local to me and 1 has it all the time but the other only about 75% of the time, dont mind me asking mate but why dont you use v power any way, thought they were very similar if not v power a little better, higher ron, from what Ive read on here? Seen youre car spec, very nice , is this why?

 

I used to use V-Power all the time and wouldn't use anything else,when the price started going up V-Power round here went to about 122.9p while Tesco 99 went to about 119.9p at it's highest. When the prices started dropping a couple of months ago,V-Power stayed around 118.9p while Tesco 99 dropped to around 109.9p so that's one reason I gave it ago.

Another reason is because although V-Power is slightly higher ron,apparently it goes off rather quickly and the ron drops while Tesco 99 doesn't suffer from this. Also the Evo boys seem to favour Tesco 99 as they seem to be able to get less det while using that instead of V-Power.

I haven't noticed a great deal of difference between the two other than price really although I haven't had it dyno'd since swapping to Tesco 99.

With the way it's going i'll be going back to V-Power anyway

 

I thought it might be price, Im the same, got v power yesterday for 97.9 but last week hadd tesco 99 for 89.9 though this was with 5p off a litre for spending £50 on shopping. My cars pretty standard, as you can see if you view my scooby, but havnt really noticed any difference in the 2, they both seem to dissapear pretty quick though lol.

 

plenty in hull put some in today @ 92.9p ,should be cheaper though because oil is dirt cheap now

 

loads of it down here

 

oldish thread but its now dry up in hull at st stephens only 86.9 aswell .
wonder if theres any at the other tesco anyone know and v power is a drive away

 

Just filled up at Lakeside essex - 87.9

Don't mind just over 20mpg at that price

 

It was just over 3 weeks in the end that my local Tesco had no 99. I've gone back to V-Power now

 

I filled up in Brid on tuesday to pick a m8 up in Manchester. Picked her up and on way bak went to clifton moor to refill but they had no Super unleaded at all. Had to drive wiv foot of gas just to make it bak to Brid.

 

Filled up today @ 87.9

 

You guys have it easy - in North Devon we can't get 99 ron fuel. My nearest Shell garage is 35 minutes away and all the Tesco garages sell 97 ron.

It's no wonder I add 10% methanol.......

 

I cant believe your paying so cheap for your fuel, Im paying 95.6 for 97ron. Bunch of robbing ***** up in my area.

 

Yep, no 99 in my local Tesco either (Last checked a few days ago), it seems when they run out they don't get it back in for ages!

 

Filled up yesterday in Sutton, 88.9

 

None in York today

 

Mansfield today 87p for 99ron 82p for normal Tesco
