Question Jet Superunleaded - octane rating ??

Noticed today that our local Jet station has pumps labelled 'Superunleaded'. Didn't see an octane rating figure so just wondered if anyone knew if it was a 97 or not.

Cheers

V Power and Tesco is 99 RON. (Some Tescos only do 97RON).

Most other SUL (including Jet) is 97RON.

Can't. Nearest shell is 25 mls away, tesco further. It's either Esso or Total locally so a third option ...Jet... would be welcome. Rutland is rural !!!!

I'd be driving to that shell garage. Or putting octane booster in for every tank of fuel.
