Cool

Heading off to Torridon in the Highlands for a weeks holiday shortly and wondered if any of you Tour D'Ecossers or local folks can advise where I can keep my car topped up with SUL or Optimax in and around that area. I'll be setting off up the A82 so would also be helpful to know the last on he main route up before you start getting remote??
Any help/info appreciated.

Cheers
Alan

If you are going through Fort William it's the esso garage on your way north that carries SUL.

I was up at Fort William two weeks ago - forget about Optimax that far north but Dougster is right about the Esso garage, it seemed to be the only garage in the area with SUL (I checked with a local jap-import WRX owner).

Theres Optimax all along the East coast, Nairn being the last stop from Aberdeen. I think they are putting a shell garage up in Inverness near Raigmore Hospital. They Have Super in the Kessock Filling Station in Inverness Too.
Have fun
