St Rollox Glasgow confirmed (87.9p/l)but the new one at Barrhead road glasgow confirmed NOT, this weekend.
At St Rollox it is billed as SUL , so I'm guessing it will replace the 97 Ron at the other stations eventually.
Received this email from Greenergy this morning:

'We have only recently been able to get suitable storage in Scotland for this grade. We commenced distribution from Grangemouth on the first of November and we will update our web site as sites get this grade.

Hopefully it will arrive in Stirling soon. I was surprised to find that the 24 hour Tesco Extra in Alloa doesn't stock SUL at all

It is indeed the Danestone branch.

I'm not far from Campus One, and the others nearby are Shell just over the Bridge itself on King Street, Shell at the bottom of Anderson Drive (50 metres from haudagain roundabout), or there's a Shell on the A96 airport road at Bucksburn if you are coming in/out that way. There's also now a Shell (used to be BP) on the main Aberdeen to Stonehaven road, about a mile out from the Bridge of Dee.

Thanks john, left the deen heading south the other day on just under a quarter of a tank. The one on Anderson drive was closed and the one on the A90 was too (doh). So i carried on to Dundee, eventually filling up at 340 miles with 5 litres left to spare

Default 99 ron

Folks

Just be careful of the Tesco fuel Aberdeen

I know of one guy who had a brand new forrester, Filled there and got approx 15 miles before his car stopped!!

Being a Subaru mechanic himself he could not for the life of him workl it out...........................

Until he removed the fuel filter IT WAS CHOKED SOLID with rusty crud, and as its a plastic tank on the car? Guess where that came from!

So please be careful

Total rip off aint it mate. Something like a 6p a litre difference between the shell station in Elgin and the one in Keith. Even the one in Nairn is still 96.9. Think im gonna have to invest in some octane booster from autosave, then i can use BP is needbe.

According to that, Alloa sells 99 octane SUL

They didn't sell *any* SUL less than a month ago

The Octy needs fed. Methinks a wee tootle to Alloa is called for

Good price! Didn't manage yesterday, but going tomorrow for the weekly shop and will fill up then

Suppose I'll have to boot the beast for a bit to let the ECU "learn" the cars new diet
