Angry BP Ultima

93.9P per leter in Hounslow. So u can imagine a tenner did not get me far at all...actually it got me as far as near home 35miles away to another BP! though here it was 90.9p!

Put 95 RON in. It'll run perfectly well, unless it's an unremapped import.

Yeah, silly expensive garage that one! Optimax is about 4-5p cheaper 6 miles down the road.

Anyone running a Jap WRX or STi on 95 RON that has not been specifically retarded for 95 RON should start saving for an engine build now. Pay the extra for super or Optimax as a minimum. It is far cheaper in the long run. No problem running 95 if you have to but then you can only use light boost unless the car is mapped for 95.
