shell fuel - no more 95RON

[angry shot]

i went to shell last night to fill up the Polo and when i went to pickup the 95 RON pump i couldn't find it

they used to have 98, 95 and 91

now they have v-power, unleaded and 10% ethanol unleaded - with no RONs displayed on any of them....

so does anyone know which one is 95RON? the guy at the station says they don't sell it anymore......

guess i'll have to find somewhere else

[BlackVr6ix]

unleaded = 91
10% = 93-5
v-power = 98

afaik

[Shade]

Yellow = 91RON
Green = 95RON (10% Ethanol)
Red V-Power = 98 RON
Red V-Power Racing = 100RON (5% Ethanol)

thanks shade, i thought i was close.

stay away from that vpower racing, expensive stuff and i get between 70-120k's less a tank!!!

Then don't thrash the car lol

[BlackVr6ix]

no change in driving style, just less k's out of the tank

Quite possible, while having a nice high octane rating, ethanol has a lower calorific value - less energy per ml.

In my local shell, they haven't had v power racing for months.
just want to confirm this, I loved that fuel, Seriously makes a difference in high revs.

anyways, just to high jack this thread a bit.
For VR drivers whats that average kms you do before filling up.
Coz mine is quite low, 380 km thats is just about to touch the red line. I hear one guy say averge he gets is 450 km/ tank. City and highway. I am worried I have soemthing major. Or that guy is just pulling my leg ???? HELP

[BlackVr6ix]

at the moment thats about what i get. actually ran out at 450 the other day.....

[MattyT]

450 per tank all the time.

I dont really smash the pedal tho.

Thats with Ultimate 98 too. We WA yokels dont get V-power. Not that I've checked in ages though.
