Hi

I have to collect someone from Heathrow very late tonight. Are there any Optimax stations on the M4 between Bristol & London?

 

go and check the shell website

 

Can't think of any but Reading services west bound does Bp Ultimate.

Possibly Swindon services does shell, but not 100% certain.

Just checked on the Welcome Break web site and yes Membury services just outside of swindon does Shell Optimax heading in either direction on the M4 .

Thanks but the Shell website has changed - you can't put in a route any more.

 

That's great thanks! Membury is about half way too!

I'll be setting off at 1am!

 

1.00 am not nice but hey so long as they repay the favour some time .

The exhaust burble will keep you awake anyway .

Watch out for the thames valley Vectra vxr thats now cruising e reading to swindon area, they have two one marked and one un-marked. They also have an 02 plate Omega in dark blue.

Have a safe one fella.

Thanks for the tips, I'll watch out for any Xeon headlamps!

I put just anything in when I went to the IOM & the car REALLY wasn't happy at all.

 

its better than running out and spending 4 hours on the hard shoulder

 

If you get really stuck get off at 8/9 and head up the A404m (8 miles each way I think) and there's a shell station that is 24 hour there that sells optimax. A long shot but should you need it it's there

 

Thanks guys, it all worked well. The Optimax at Avonmouth (M5) & Membury (M4) sorted me out.

Time for bed!
