Should I use supermarket fuel?

Other than the increased octane rating, does Tesco Momentum U/L have any other advantages over their basic U/L and how does it compare with Shell Fuelsave U/L?

Answered by Honest John

Tesco Momentum is 99 Ron. Shell Fuelsave is 95 Ron. Momentum does not have the additive package that Shell V-Power Nitro Plus contains.
