Question

Alright, I know it has been done to death, but is it worth it.
I have a standard 5drMY98, will it make much (or any) difference, and is Super unleaded from other garages the same as Optimax?

Cheers

Pete mate
Tried it in my Austin Maxi this morning. Wow. It makes the car accelerate 0.08 secs quicker to 40 than regular 4 star replacement petrol. Its a bit dear though..All the best. Blutes

Haggis,

I thought the same but PE assure me that the better fuel you use the better your car wil run. Apparently, Optimax is the best quality forecourt fuel available. Ring Merv and arrange a diagnotic asssesment of how your car is running. The statistics speak for themselves.
