Tesco generally doesnt seem to be too bad but Aberdeen tesco has had few incidents where theres been water in their tanks so we just stick with v power.

Run a classic for three years, and bugeye for two + (both sti) with no problems, Tesco stuff uses octane boosters I think, so would only use it if it was a daily drive rather than a weekend/trackday car

my car is mapped for v-power, but been using momentum99 for 2 years with no noticable difference.
listen to some people though, especially on pistonheads, you would swear the choice is super-magical V-Power or momentum99, which is not really petrol, but tesco no frills stuff made from old turps and donkey ****.

Lol all of mine were mapped on 99
V-power used to give more flamage on gearchange but nearest Shell is 15 miles away compared to 1 mile to Tescos
