matth76 1 Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 HiAnyone tried this new fuel from Optimax yet? I haven't seen it yet but apparently it is available in some places...its 99 ron so the same as Tesco but been rated as the best. Its worth a try though. Apparently all the Subaru drivers rate the new V Power but don't rate the Tesco 99 stuff (which I currently use) as it has a tendency to retard ignition timing ..apparently. My car loves the Tesco stuff though. If anyone lives in the Worthing or Brighton area let me know if you see a Shell garage with V Power.CheersMatt Link to post Share on other sites
The_0ne 0 Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 You do realise that V-Power is just Optimax renamed don't you?Optimax has been called V power for years over on the continent, there only renaming Optimax V-Power over here because Shell recently got there ass sued for using the Optimax name when its someone else who owns the Optimax name Link to post Share on other sites
