I normally buy Tesco fule becouse it's less than 2 mins from my house but after the scare I went and filled up at the local Shell. I used the v-tech stuff and what a difference the engine is smoother and a lot quicker, the car is more responsive to the throttle and a joy to drive again. Got any views on the subject ???

I usually put in BP's uber expensive petrol, whatever its called. It shouldn't however make any difference to the performance of the engine as the K doesn't have a knock sensor to make better use of the higher Ron in the high octane fuels.

Certainly feels better though, i agree.

I use Shell V Power only, will use other stuff if I really have to, but as there is normally a Shell garage around it is V Power for me, though I do need it, as the car is mapped for it.
