So the missus brings the 996 home last night having apparently mastered the art of running an engine on fresh air but still can't fill it up herself!

Pop out this morning to do my bit for G Brown's balance defecit by filling her up and my local Esso has ran out of Super Unleaded (and there's not a Shell, BP or Tesco 99 station for miles around). Ended up putting Sainsbury's Super Plus in and she seems to like it.

Anyone else tried it or know anything about it?

...and it was 86.9p per litre which ain't too bad! well of course it's actually daylight robbery, but by comparison...

Thanks for the info, she still runs great so I guess the stuff is basically OK. I do like to put Optimax in but nearest Shell takes me half a tank to get there and back (especially if I go on the more fun roads! ) which makes it kind of impractical so I guess as said its better than 'regular'.

Out of interest, how many folk put 'super' in as a matter of course and how many stick to regular? My 996 is 60K miles with 3 owners - for all I know I may be the first one to put super in it....
