Shell "V"Power or Tesco 99?

Postby WR1 IMPOSTER 2! » Wed Aug 17, 2011 8:28 pm

Would appreciate some advice on this one! Have always run my car on
V Power since i bought it and never thought to look for an alternative. However my local Shell garage has shut which means a considerable hike to the next nearest Shell robbin bastards. Anyway, i've heard that Tesco do this "Tesco 99" and was wondering if anyone has used it, if it's any good etc? While i'm at it, are there any other alternatives for our type of motors?

Good news mate, the Tesco at Wigston sells the fuel you are after, will speak to you tomorrow for directions. :D

Just put in your postcode and this will tell you where the nearest Tesco petrol station selling the Momentum fuel is. Apparrently, they have 410 outlets.

I use Shell or Tesco in mine and get the same mpg on both around the 22 mark so I wouldn't worry about it unless it has been specifically mapped to V Power
