SHELL V POWER
I have heard alot on this fuel,
I use it nearly all the time & did in my old wrx.
My gut feeling that it is worth it and should be used if you obey subaru,s instructions.
What do you guys use & why etc etc.

i always used v-power and as the price gradually kept creeping up and up i started to feel i was paying for something i didnt need (uk model) so then i changed to tesco 99 because it was near enough same price as 97 ron. since tesco stopped 99 for a couple of weeks near me i started using normal esso sul.
but last week i put £20 of v power in and i am converted again, mpg seems better and car feels a little bit more responsive and smoother.

i use v power only cost last owner did though,
nearest shell garage is 7 miles away
nearest tesco isnt even 1/4 mile away so which would u choose v power or 99
bloody costing me 14 miles to fill up

used to always use vpower but had to do a 25 mile round trip to nearest shell.
tesco is about 3 mile round trip so filled up with the 99ron stuff for remap and have used it since

One thing to note is that although V-Power and Tesco 99 have the same RON rating they are far from the same fuel. They are different beasts in terms of what's in there chemically.
Various magazines/tv programmes have compared them for power/economy with a range of vehicles, with different conclusions every time as far as I can tell.
Google for results.
I'd take all these surveys with a pinch of salt, you never know how "scientific" they are or what politics are in play.
Never had any problems with V-Power + CVL
