Favour for Kenny.... 
He's been on the phone very low on fuel and is looking for the nearest garage selling SUL or Optimax near to Kilmelford (20 miles South of Oban) area.....rather than filling up with 95ron
Oban has been tried along with ESSO garage just North with no joy...
Any help appreciated but personally don't post as Scoobynet's such a lovely quiet place with him stranded up there

Ok ok ok..... you can flame him all when he gets back. He asked me to put up a post and that's what I've done
Cheers Dan B but unfortunately not all Shell stations have Optimax as he's just found out
Yup, agreed that 95 ron wouldn't kill it in the short term but if I was up there on holiday to make best use of the roads on offer I think I'll admit to wanting something a bit more than 95...

turboman786,
Totally agree with you, why is it anything involving Kenny and his Impreza ends up being a major drama. It's now got to the stage where he can't even fill the thing with petrol without consulting this messageboard first.

The Esso at Lochgilphead sells super, or it did the last time I was there (about two years ago). It's probably about 15 miles further south, and it's a cracking drive to get there.

Thanks for that. I've passed that on to Kenny and he's appreciative
and his comments to the really helpful posters

Kenny didn't even draw breath at your kind comments, but he says thanks for your help anyway ya c**t.... (think there must have been a bad signal at that point as I really couldn't quite catch his last bit

The car was mapped specifically to run on 97ron by John Banks, sure it would run fine on 95 ron but once out the city on excellent twisties, would you really want to do so

Can someone just check to see if he's wiped his own **** properly?
I reckon that (shh it's top secret) that aliens have kum in search on intelligent life form but found saxo so amusing they abducted him instead!
I AM IN PHYSICAL PAIN LAUGHING AT THIS THREAD!!
This is pure class. I can't take any more
