May 7th.

Was available ~@ Hook services (M3) yesterday

Considering its a fortnight now since Maude-gate its quite staggering that so many stations have not been re-stocked.

Tanker drivers may as well go on strike for all the fking difference it'd make.

[PaulG40]

Oooh! I didn't know alot of she'll station had ran out and had not been restocked. Our smart roadster only runs on the stuff so hope our local has it!

[martin84]

How can the Smart Roadster only run on one oil companies brand of petrol?

Did Shell sell you the car? Did Shell tell you that? I sense skullduggery.

[Eighteeteewhy]

I hope there's some about around here tomorrow. I'm taking my M3 for MOT and there's only fumes in the tank at the moment.

Serious? or guesswork. There has been none available round Birmingham since the day before the strike/panic/fiasco. I've been using Tesco premium stuff and I may well keep on using it since Shell are so f...ing useless.

It was serious guesswork.

Good to see Shell looking after its premium fuel customers

Woeful

It has to run on 98. Tend to keep it on Shell as it runs the best on it and gives back the mpg too. Don't have a BP near to us and Tesco fuel doesn't return the mpg. Sainsburys 97 we stay clear of, again mpg woeful on it. Total, is ok I guess, just never use it.

Running the car on Sainsbury's premium at the moment - fuel economy has taken a hit (down from 20.1 city to 18.6) and the engine sounds much rougher.

fking panic buying tts.

[Chicane-UK]

I filled up with BP Ultimate the other day no problems..

[Biker's Nemesis]

I filled up with Shell V Power on Sunday.

Same here, but the local garage was out of V-Power (and Diesel) last week, both had been restocked.

You can run it on unleaded and the ECU adapts...no big deal...stick a fiver in ?

[Kwistof]

Just called my local Shell and they have V power unleaded back in

Stop 24 services on the M20 in case any of you are wondering!

[leef44]

I didn't appreciate how widespread this was. I tried to fillup over the weekend but both my local Shell garages were empty so i settled for BP instead. I was surprised because i drliberately waited a week after the panic

[Roo]

There was no V-Power of either petrol or diesel at the Shell garage at Linton this morning.

But as I don't use it it didn't bother me that much.

[Vixpy1]

Shell are doing few/if any dewliveries of Vpower until the threat of a strike abates. That was from the chap at the local Shell station
