    Shell V-Power (98 RON) only in mine... Used to use Caltex 98 Premium, but wasn't as readily available around Brisbane as V-Power is...

    BP Ultimate for me.

    In other news, I picked up my car from the panel beater today. Door all fixed and ready for coilover and sways sometime in the next couple of weeks.

    After years of V-Power decided to try BP Ultimate and have never gone back.
    I also understand from a friend who does drift racing that V-Power actually "goes off". It seems the additive has a short shelf life.
    For me, the proof was in the pudding.

    But I must say fuel economy was better with V-Power though.

    Tossing up whether to get products, or products but also thinking whether to get my boas stripped and powder coated it matte black.

    Any ideas/Suggestions? i want to steer clear of the GTI look so i guess the first link may be negligable.

    even though I only take delivery on Friday, have arranged transplant / exchange of RCD310 with RCD510 from my existing Tiguan...
    might get rear park assist for $330 while he's at it...
    will order VW BT from eBaym which apparently will work with both units...
    Anyone, is park assist useful on GTI...?

    I work at a Shell oil refinery so I might be biased but I always fill it up with V-power (wich is 97 RON btw) because I get 20% off anyway

    That's interesting PoloDave because it's marketed as premium, 98 RON here but to me, it's irrelevant because it's BP ultimate for me all the time. Why? Because it's the only true 100% 98 RON minimum fuel, all the others (V-Power included) are manufactured to an average, well, they were as of 8 mionths ago and I doubt much will have changed.
    1 tank of BP might see 100RON but it won't (thoretically) drop below 98. The same tank of V power might also be 100, but it could also be 92, it just depends on the average.

    My park assist is my neck and to be true, although the same size, it's 10 times easier to park than my Mk4 golf because it doesn't sport the massive, characteristic "C" pillar of the golf

    I drove the Polo into work today. It's only the second time I've done it. I had my partner in the passenger seat and didn't realise how tiny the car is. He's 6'4" tall and his head clears the sun shade by about 2 centimetres. Better go over those speedhumps very slowly or else his hard noggin is going to put a serious dint in my sunshade

    I'm 6'6" and plenty of head space (never bumped by head on the roof when jumping speed bumps ). Looks like you loose a bit of head room with the sunroof?
