Hi all,

I can not find a definitive answer - can you use E10 petrol in a 2006 4.3 V8 Vantage?

Hopefully someone can help.

Thanks in advance.

Great chat, but still waiting for a definitive answer - yes or no ?

I'd say from the gov site that the 06 v8 is compatible, but I'd use the super anyway. What happens if its NOT compatible, what symptoms would you see, or would be invisible damage(until something goes bang) ???
Thanks I agree.

From the gov site it is not very clear, all it says is V8 before 2000 not suitable.
You have to assume that means after 2000 they are.

I intend to use super, but useful to know if you can in an emergency.
Not worth the risk long term,as you say.
