    Can you buy Avgas in Aus? People buy it in NZ from airfields, but they have to have a race licence and the fuel can't be pumped directly into the vehicle. Avgas here is leaded of course, not sur about which Avgas types are available in Australia, there are some Low Lead (100LL) fuels in some countries.

    Oh sweet, I was referring to the 100 octane fuel that petrol stations around australia were pumping until 05 was it?
    Because in europe they still have 100 octane shell petrol.

    Up here some select Shell Servos have/had 100 Octane, but I haven't checked in a long while.

    EDIT: Ignore me, apparently it stopped in late 2008, told you its been a while. And it used to be 5% ethanol.
