I dont believe it,the Shell station I use for SUL has stopped selling it

.It now means I have to go further to find the stuff,and it costs 86p ltr. The drive I enjoy,but I tend to burn most of the fuel going there and back

Also why can't we have Optimax 98 RON like the rest of europe?

Actually, Optimax is 99RON.
And it only costs us 70p/litre.

Em ? My local Tesco has changed all its pumps to Low Sulphur Petrol and does not give any RON rating at all now on the pumps, is the so called Premium Low Sulphur Unleaded the same ? didnt bother filling up, went to the local esso station next door for some SUL 97 RON

Anyone know if the Tesco stuff is the same

Cheers

Greg

All unleaded petrol is now ULSP / ultra low sulphur which stops yer cat stinking of rotten eggs, but where you see ULSP it's 95 octane, you still need to find the super pump for 97 ....
