A don't RON RON

Post by bobjebb » Sun Aug 13, 2006 8:48 pm

I am moving to Wiltshire shortly and I'm discovering that there are NO 98RON outlets anywhere near where I'm going to live. Nearest is 13 miles away, that's 20-30 mins and judging by the way our cars drink fuel I can see this being a royal pain. Does anyone live down that way and if not is octane booster an option? I've never used it before, do you just add it to 95?

Blimey I'm going to miss my tesco 99...
RS4 B5. Where it all started.
RS6+ Never to be replaced.
Replaced by: 997 Turbo. Didn't like.
Replaced by RS6. I like(d).
Land Rover Defender. Not as nippy.
Back with C6 RS6
And again C7 RS6

There are plenty of independent garages round Devises which sell 98/99 Ron...Ron...
I was there last week and filled B7 with super at £1.03 lt so dont panic. I also have a boxes of Cvl Turbo plus which I use in the 996 when I cant get super... works fine with 95 ron... without it the car misses like a dog..

Thanks Simon, Devizes will be much easier, I didn't think independents sold the stuff at all. If you're passing (or more likely filling up at) one, could you let me know the name/location? Or I'll have a scoot around next time I'm down.

Cheers
