Petrol stations with high octane nearby?

[Pesty]

Hi all,

Did a search but could not see any reference to petrol stations near bruntingthorpe. As this will be the first one Ive attended in my car not sure how much juice I am going to use.

Is there anywhere to top up nearby before we start? my car has a drink problem at 150

There is a Shell station in Wigston 5 miles to the north.
And a fuel station 3 miles south at Husbands Bosworth.

7-8mpg, you're lucky, I'll be getting half that.

That makes me feel better if EFI only gets that when i'm running carbs the size of watering cans.
