what petrol for 1.8 VVC?

And a suitable engine can get a big lift in power on better petrol. My Clio 182 is noticably quicker on 98 octane, but the 99 octane from Tesco seems to really make it fly. Even runs slightly hotter on the temp guage.

FH54WLX - only the car supports ManU, honest!

Evo have done another petrol test last month with really interesting results. They did, Asda, tesco, shell, BP 95 and then: Optimax, BP 97 and tesco 99 (on an M5 and Golf GTi). Very interesting results. At the end they did say that if you don't use optimax, put one in every now and then for its cleaning abilities.
