what you think to it?

i've kinda been forced into using super unleaded thanks to broster but he's using tesco 99ron and seems to like it

after seeing a post on mig to a similar tune, i thought i'd ask the question on here

anyway, at 98p per litre its cheaper than esso supreme/ shell optimax, so if its good, i'll drive the extra little way

so.... opinions?

98p per litre? I paid 94.9 the other day so took advantage and filled her up. Normal unleaded was 90.9p that day.

tesco's for me would be a 5 min drive whereas the optimax garage is about 10 mile away, either in the city centre or on the a74 at gretna

Even better if you do your shopping there, spend £50 or over and get 5p off per litre at the petrol pump
