Shell V Power or Tesco 99 Super Unleaded, Which is best?

<< < (4/6) > >>

spliff1star:
i only use v power but tried tesco and have found it better as the car picks up faster.vpower is better as it just lasts longer than the tesco brand.esso super is not too great but i do think the tesco fuel made more power low down in my gti you do see the difference but the v power will last longer evan if u push the pedals as much as u are using the vpower.

Ifti:
What do you mean by 'vpower will last longer'??!!

I have been using vpower, but decided to try T99 for the last 2 tanks or so.
Im seeing the same mpg as I did with vpower.

Moschops:
V-power all the way for me. :happy2:

SO8:
I see the same mpg too !

The only difference is really subjective - and these threads go on and on because everyone has a different view  :laugh:

I had my car running on V Power and it rolling roaded on Superchips rollers - it made 295bhp.  A month later of using Tesco 99 (and 1K miles later) it made 299 on the same rollers ...... down to the petrol ? or just a different day ?  (no matter what 'correction' done by the rolling road) or even the fact it had done another 1,000 miles ??  Who knows.  Both are good but V Power costs more !

I am going to resist the urge to put my subjective view of which feels quicker in my car (though I have previously  :grin:)

CarrG:
How much is V power? I can't get it my way, always used Tesco 99 but it's 1.12p/ltr now!
