V-power.
Tesco 99 is 2nd best.
Tesco run with loads of additives.

Tesco fuel is sold as "supermarket grade" and much of it is produced in the Petroplus Coryton Refinery, usually sold by Greenergy and normally delivered by TDG Chemicals. It doesn't have any additives like V-Power for example but it is a biofueland cosnidered by many to be an inferor quality fuel. Shell V-Power, BP Ultimate, Esso SUL are all pretty much the same but with different anti friction/cleaning additives. You wouldn't really notice any short term effects regarding these, you would definately notice in the long term though, which is why I belong to the V-Power club :happy2:
You pays your money you take your choice.

I was under the impression reading on t'other forum that its shell that has the Bio additives and not tesco's.
