just put 98 in it

That's my thinking as well. It might be psychological, but I just like putting the best fuel (IMO) into the car - generally BP ultimate.
What's a few dollars more per tank?...meh...

$1.273 for 98oct & $1.549 for E85
With those prices, I agree completely. Go the 98. Really need to tune for E85 and consumption is very high.

Our prices don't have cycling. $1.59 for 95 at Woolworths in Launceston and about 10c per litre more again if you buy it from Coles. :( Can't complain though NZ would be over $2 per litre for 95.

Good old Shell, no matter where you go they are consistently 5-10c a litre more. Haven't used them in years for that reason.

I’ve not heard of E85 being that much more; is it subsidised by the government the same proportion as other fuels in Queensland?

Our local Caltex had an E-Flex bowser installed in 2011.
They removed it in 2015...
