Shell station in Stacey Bushes had a delivery of Optimax yesterday morning. Currently mixed in with the SUL.
All Shell stations in Milton Keynes will have it, and launch on the 11th/12th (according to Shell)

Cheers

I dream of 25mpg... Must have been towed i reckon!!! My car loses 2 gallons of fuel just by cleaning her!!!

Got 23mpg from my first tank of Optimax last week. I reckon you can feel the difference... and its only 79.9p!!

The Shell on the A5 at Paulerspury (about 8 miles North of MK) has had it for a while now, so purists should head there until the other garage has flushed out the old SUL http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif

Great stuff, isn't it... I had to change back to SUL for the last tankful and boost dropped by around 0.5psi or so http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif Optimax rules http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif
