I prefer Tesco's to Shell, not sure if it's placebo, but it just 'feels' better

 

my nearest Shell is 6 miles away (a new petrol station, used to be 9 miles to nearest) but I'd rather go 8 miles to the nearest Tesco's for momentum 99 :)

Yes it's good but if you can get 4-5 mpg more from Shell and the mpg outweighs the extra cost I might give it a chance, what you think?

I try to use Shell standard fuel where I can, but nearest station is circa 12 miles away. Tesco 1 mile away so used that for the first time last tank. Be interesting to see if there's any difference

I get better MPG from Tesco 99, most I've had on a run is 36MPG, best I've had from nitro is 32MPG. and Tesco 99 is 10p a litre cheaper too

I have to use Tesco or Total I have no choice wouldn't pay me to even try get to my local S-hell Garage

Yeah they're both Uk car's I can only use the two garages but if I'm at Total it's Total Excellium

I would if it wasn't a 25 mile round trip to my nearest that I very rarely go past :(

It says 95 ron ONLY on the inside of my petrol flap so is v power ok

It's a Uk car so it will run happy on that but also wouldn't do any harm putting anything else above that through. 

And I have to apologise I have been using this petrol station for over 5 years and been saying it;s Total, well infact it Esso -_-   I did notice about 3 days ago when I went past but didn't want to say anything :)

I filled up with v-power for the first time yesterday and is running much nicer than before. And am getting a loyalty card so make a little back, and will probably start checking MPG. Although my MPG goes down with every car, 50 with the Panda, then 31 with the MX5 and I feel this will be slightly less...

V power here too. Why compromise,that's what mine's mapped for

I had a Mazda 323 sport a while back, that was tuned to run on vpower the difference was huge. Only problem was it ran like a bucket of bolts on normal fuel.

Definitely worth tuning your car to the fuel if you only intend to use that fuel, you'll get much better response and performance

I always use V-Power mainly due to the extra cleaning properties they (claim) to put in compared to Tesco.
