Seademon 0 Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Whilst I was driving through France & Germany last week I noticed Shell are doing a new kind of Optimax called V-Power, its 100 RON as opposed to Optimax's 98 - has anyone tried it? I was driving a Zafira diesel so couldnt x) Wanna know if it'll be ok to use and give me a bit more bang for when I go to the ring in June Link to post Share on other sites

Seademon 0 Posted January 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 I've not seen it anywhere in England - saw it for the first time last week as I drove to Germany, at first I thought it was just a different name for Optimax but then I realised it was 100 RON - I'll see if I can find out from the shell website when we might be getting it.

Seademon 0 Posted January 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Just checked (bored) and the shell web forum says they have no plans to introduce it to the Uk at the moment (that was posted last April though) other countries also have it such as Ireland and Holland but the Octane rating in those countries for V-Power is 95 !dodge less than Optimax! So at the moment its looks like we'll all be using Optimax unless we go to Germany to get some 100 RON V-Power! We probably will get it eventually but as usual were the last to get anything.
