Just been to the UAE (United Arab Emirates) wher it works out at $0.34 per litre

Randomjim · 04-10-2006, 03:41 PM

In the south of uk its about .92p a litre. Which is about $1.70

im paying 3.05 for 91 oct gallon

**RickT** · 04-11-2006, 08:33 AM

you guys in the US use 91 oct where as here in the Uk the lowest is 95oct and then super at 97 and opitmax from shell at 98 and BP do a 98 also...

i know in my manual for my car the lowest recommended is 95 and if i use 95 then 98 i can tell the differance after a bit of time running the higher fuel...

any other thoughts??

Super unleaded is going for about CAD$1.18 per litre here in Montreal. More expensive further east, less expensive further west (Alberta).

I only use super unleaded 98 ron in my turbo cars and definately get a better acceleration off the mark.I find that i can get BP ultimate for only a few pence more from Sainsburys petrol station so only cost me about £2 more to fill the car up.

Sainsburys dont advertise the fact that it is BP fuel they sell but have seen the tankers filling up the forecourts tanks.
