Well I've got a nice full tank of the new super unleaded.. I asked the guy behind the counter when they were getting it and he said its already in they just dont have the sign yet! sweeeeeeeeeeeeet... lets see if the 98.6ron helps
Its the high wycombe shell just off handy cross. Check with the ppl behind the counter next time you fill up at your local

old but gold

?? Price ??

I have just filled up in Diss, Norfolk. I was down to nearly fresh air.

Price was 80.9p per ltre.

Seems to rev better - but I have only driven 10 miles so far.

Pete,

Should have no problem finding it up here as its all coming from the refinery at Ellesmere Port (famous for fuel blockades in the recent past!).

I asked at garages in Congleton and Stockport and they were both expecting the new stuff...

Cheers,
Gareth

TRIGGER

As I think has been posted before, most Shell garages already have it but it is being blended in with the old stuff. Until the tanks are only full of the new stuff they wont actually advertise it. But my garage is selling it and a big ad campaign will start in 2 weeks when they reckon it will be flushed through.

I filled up in the shell garage in bracknell this morning - do they have it?

To check current garages with Optimax SUL go to

Bitten Hero

So far so good Nearly two tankfuls and an ECU reset, and I'm holding 17.5psi (MY00, PPP). Seems to be very smooth and strong throughout rev range. No idea on fuel economy yet...

Verdict It's the same price as SUL, which I've always bought anyway, and seems better, so who am I to complain?

DrEvil

me too, the big shell station in guildford has it in the tanks already done 50 miles and seems better

Where can I get this stuff? I live in Warrington!! Well excited now!!!

Saw my local shell advertising it, two ladies dressed up handing out leaflets on the forcourt. Looked for the sign on the pump selling it (optimax sign is in red) picked up the red gun nearly pulled the trigger, then realized it was LRP, they'd got the signs mixed up. Drove to the pump actually selling it and told the woman handing out the leaflets. She told me she didn't work there, just handed out leaflets for the stuff. Wonder how my car would have run on LRP as they havn't changed the sign a week later.

I filled up with optimax tonight. Drove 20 miles to a mates house.. No difference whatsoever.

Got back in the car 2 hours later to drive home and I have noticed a performance increase. It does pull a lot harder. Quite impressed. I feel as though I should be telling my insurance co that I have made a mod.

Ecu most have been reviewing notes while parked up.

Any ideas what it is doing to the engine.... Any increase in engine temp.

Standard (At the moment) MY01

My local BP filling station (Stoke-on-Trent) has been selling 98RON sul for quite some time.

Dave,
Are you sure they don't just have an old sticker? I was not aware that any BP station was supplying 98 Ron unleaded in the uk.

Peter Johnson, Burtonwood Services on the eastbound carriage way are selling Optimax. Think it is 81.9p a litre. Look for the Red Label.

I've got 4:1 Optimax:SUL in the tank of my MY99 Sport, and it does seem to have made a little bit of difference over the 30 miles since I filled up. It does seem to be pulling stronger - I'm fairly sure I'm not just imagining it!
