Default Total Excellium?

Just wondering if anybody has used this fuel before? I've got a total garage close to my house, so it'd be preferable to use this stuff. That said, I've also got a shell garage just a bit further away, so would I be better using Optimax?

Cheers!

oddly enough i put some in today for the first time... 97ron cost me 94.9 ppl, and it was the day i got a new back box on the Atom, and now i don't know if its the pipe or the petrol thats reason it feels a little slower.

ive use it once on the STI as there is a total station near work, seems fine to me, normally stick to tesco 99, but this is closer so i use occasionally

Firstly, YES i am biased as i run a Total Petrol Station.


Total Excellium is 98ron and really needs a couple of tanks through the system to get the best benefits from it, these being better fuel consumption and a more efficient running engine over the old fuel.

I have for for 18 months now got more people to use this and no one yet has come back to me reference my deal of try it and if it does not give better performance i will give back the 2p per litre back!! (general cars, at my site only) to date no one has ever asked for a refund.

I have used it myself in my own car as well (MY06 JDM) with no bother and have a couple of dozen or so other regular Scooby users, also bear in mind that our average speeds are MUCH higher over here!!

Used it once as i was virtually running out and the car seemed a little flatter to me but who knows it could have been outside temp or my imagination !!
