c63 AMG estate
The cheapest SUL close to me is Esso. It's 97 Ron and I note the MB recommends minimum 98 Ron for the c63 amg.

Does anybody here run their car on Esso SUL?

Also, how have you found Tescos, Sainsburys SUL in the car?

Thanks
 
She'll V-Power only for me. I would imagine 97 RON from Esso will be OK, but I personally travel further for V-Power so it's right, rather than OK :thumb:

Same here.
 
Shell V-Power here too!!
 
On the fuel cap it says minimum 93 but recommends 98. I also use V power, a lot more crackle and pop and surprisingly better fuel economy.
 
Shell V Power only for the CLS55.
 
V-Power for me, Garage is 1/4 mile from the house.

I use petrol in the merc, and diesel in the Octavia (most of the time :crazy:)
but I have been known to get mixed up :wallbash:
 
I only use Shell V-Power.
I will go out of my way to find a Shell garage.

Quite a few people like Tesco fuel.
But I prefer to go to Sainsburys for my milk.
 
I had an All Star card for the Octavia, and all company drivers (fleet is 500+ lease vehicles) were under strict orders to only fill up at supermarkets. However last week we changed to Shell cards, managed by a company called Juice (I think that's what they are called) with strict instructions to only purchase regular diesel, as we get it at less than pump prices. Advanced diesel would be at pump prices so is a no no.
Good news is I have a loyalty card which gives me vouchers I can use to buy petrol for the merc.
 
I only use shell v power nitro unleaded for my car.

I am part of the minority who uses standard Shell petrol.
 
Tesco Momentum at home as only 1 mile away but my mileage is mostly abroad so Aral 102 or Shell V-Power Racing 100 in Germany or any Super Unleaded in Holland or Denmark (98+ron)
 
Interesting thread,Shell don't make petrol or diesel in the uk anymore.
 
V-Power or Momentum 99 only for me! Not sure whether there would be any adverse effects to using anything else, but I am not taking the chance!

It does state that only higher octane fuel to be used in my sl55 handbook.potential engine damage could be the result.
 
It's the cleaning properties of fuel that is as important to me as performance, which is why I prefer to buy fuel from a fuel company and not a greengrocer.
