Esso launches high-octane premium fuel - Synergy Supreme+ 99
Esso has announced the launch of its first 99 Octane fuel - Synergy Supreme+ 99. The new premium fuel will be available on forecourts nationwide from October 14, with the exception of 140 sites in the north west, which won't have supply until next year. The high-spec fuel fills a ...

Interesting demographic assessment - wonder which bracket SCN contributors fall into?
Ah well, good for Alex, a chance to stand on the top step!
I must get my S4 out more and make room for a tank of that stuff, I seem to like to use Esso as my first choice of petrol and Mobil as my first choice of engine oil, but being a Costco member typically means that 4 tank fills out of 5 are Costco's "finest" at a seriously lower cost - well for my wife's 2015 Polo 6C anyway!

Ahh V Power.
Not used anything else since tried Tecos in my VIXERS. So various VIXERS/MEGGARS and now the Cupra R.
BUT it was 8 p a litre more than std. Then 12p more. Now £1.15 to 1.25. NOW 1.15 to 1.40 Where did that come from BONKERS pricing. oh I get 1p off with Shell GO
ESSO garage on my doorstep with Nectar points nearest Tesco/shell 7 miles away 14 round trip that.s 2 litres!!!
Give ESSO a go then

SG1 area and esso are significantly expensive, god only knows what this would cost.
the local Shell otherwise is 3-4 pence per litre more than others for premium and if i want to go Vpower its 16p a litre more!
utter con.

Been to the ESSO garage .
YES they stock it, Just BM ignorance [he said he had been away when they installed it [EH]
Good news was instead of 1.24,9 to 1.39,9 ppl it was 1.22,9 ppl so got a tankful and the MRS car too.

I just put some in my car as it was running on fumes. In the very short drive I had it felt good but all esso fuel has always felt good in my car and I won't get the benefit you cupra peeps get. I try to judge mine more on how smooth the car feels. Oh and its ONLY 11p per litre more. Which is better than most premium fuels. Most are 12p or more in my experience unless its supermarket super/premium fuel.
Ooh, Esso joines the 99 club. My previous experience of higher than 95 RON fuels (juding from a 1.0TSI Ibiza and 1.5T Volvo V40) were that Vpower gave 3-4 mpg like for like, Esso 97 gave the smoothest engine, and Momentum, gave neither (maybe as the others say a higher top end, which I didn't explore).
