    i just put V power in my car, feels like it has a bit better throttle response.... and just feels like its running a bit more efficiently...yet to see if I get any more mileage than regular fuel though
    should just go try it yourself mate, only way you will properly know

    Luke was telling me today that it's worth 3-4 extra degrees spark advance over Ultimate in his car. That's huge

    Used it ages ago. Not worth the money you pay for it IMO. Felt the same as using their 98 crap.

    Shell are phasing out V -Power Racing (100 ron), and will have done so by the end of the year. V -Power (98 ron) will be their only premium fuel from I am led to believe.

    If you want to try it, you'd best get in quick.
