The Shell garage in the centre of Chandlers Ford is selling Optimax.

Haven't tried it yet though.

The staff at Shell Waterlooville tell me it is actually optimax in there tanks at the moment, but they are not aloud to advertise it until the official launch. Not sure whether I beleive them or not thou.

Cool

Put my first full tank today. Got a free key-ring in the process (Shell garage at Winnall, Winchester)

No difference noticed yet, will do ECU reset in a week or so to see what happens.

I put some in at the weekend from Fleet services....big difference noticed from the off.

However at 11p a litre more than NUL and 6.4p more than SUL it's pretty expensive stuff.

Waiting for another garage to sell it as I'm sure 86.9p a litre is expensive even for motorway services!!
