Have they stopped selling Tesco 99 in your area?

[Fletcher]

As above,

I went to my nearest Tesco supermarket [Winnall Hampshire] and went to fill up with some 99 super unleaded, and noticed a sign saying due to high demand of stock fuels normal diesel and 95 unleaded they could not continue selling super unleaded 99:dapprove:

I was wondering if this has happened anywhere else?

 

[T31-SGB PH-QUICK]

never even seen the stuff??:dapprove:

 

[OLLZIE]

they dont sell it at my local tesco's express but sell it at potters bar. Dont know how much it costs right now but i can tell you it aint gonna be cheap for a litre.

 

[Leeshez]

Same here.

 

[Fletcher]

Are you guys all based up north?

I think they only sell it down south.

 

[Gaz]

Still sell Tesco 99 at Barnsley @ 100.9 no signs as yet if there gonna stop doing it

 

[T31-SGB PH-QUICK]

[cat171]

They sell it in my local tesco's daan saaarff (essex) but its something like 103.9p a litre !!

 

[ukaskew]

Think yourself lucky you ever got it, over here in the South West we never got it (apart from a few random places, such as Poole and for a while in Bristol)

Just been down, still pumping it.

Optimax 102.9, wtf!!

 

[Fletcher]

Well in genral i use/ prefer shell Optimax, but i did quite like the 99 stuff.

 

[ukaskew]

Optimax 102.9, wtf!!

Tesco 97 costs more than that here in Wiltshire, in fact the most expensive I've seen recently (no joke) is 112.9p. We always seem to have higher prices around here, don't think I've filled up for less than 100p/litre this year.

They were out last Wednesday night.

Had to fork out £1.07 a litre across the road at Shell

Day do you know if the Eastleigh Tesco garage still does super unleaded [99]?

 

[DesignPunk]

Barnsley has it. Thats near Sheffield. Which isn't near anywhere southern! I believe it's the 99ron stuff too.

 

[Chris]

Had 99 ron in Coventry Tesco but had now stopped but they still charge the same price for the 97 stuff

 

[atomic_bog_roll]

the only tescos that have it are in the south of england

Wigan has it as well.

 

[andyleigh]

cant get it in warrington, only get 97, does anyone know where you can get it?

 

[ukaskew]

It depends how well it does in a particular area I guess. Around here we have no Shell stations so the only choice is amazingly expensive BP Ultimate. The roll-out in the South West appears to be accelerating if anything (I'm not surprised, lots of very nice sporty machinery in these parts)

Theres a Tesco in Eastleigh?

Where lol

I've been going to Bursledon all this time

 

[Fletcher]

I think Tesco's are making up excuses, saying the demand is high for stock fuels, and as a result they cannot justify selling 99. On several occasions the supermaket where i used to get the fuel from had sold out of the stuff.

I wouldn't be surprised if they stop selling 99 altogether, and just raise the price of standard 95 ron fuel.

 

[Fletcher]

Theres a Tesco in Eastleigh?

Where lol

I've been going to Bursledon all this time

It might be the one in Bursledon mate, all i know is it's just past Havesters [Ham Farm] and before Eastleigh town center.

 

[Day]

I avoid Eastleigh if I can Fletch

Is it a proper supermarket or one of those Garage/Metro stores?

 

[Fletcher]

^^^^ Its a Metro mate.

 

[DH_GTI]

they sell it in my tiny town of cirencester for 102. in glos 99 stuff

 

[tim182]

Does it really make that much difference - normal unleaded - super unleaded ??

 

[Fletcher]

Does it really make that much difference - normal unleaded - super unleaded ??

I used to always use Shell Optimax, or Tesco 99 untill my girlfriend filled up with normal Shell 95 ron fuel, and imo there is very little difference between the two performance wise. But i do find the car idle's better on the higher octane fuels [BP Ulitimate, Shell Optimax, and Tesco 99] now i still mostly use Shell Optimax, because of it's cleaning properties, but if i have to do a long motorway journey then i now just fill up with normal 95 ron fuel.

 

[scruffty]

Here in Maidstone it's 102.9 - clubcard points are always handy I suppose?

Tesco 99 Fuel is being used for the British Rally (or so it says on the pumps) so I'd assume it's here to stay? Also, I'm sure Tesco 99 RON is like 1% bio ethanol which means they get loads of tax breaks from the Government?

 

[Mells]

You could get it in York and Wakefield.

My local BP round the corner has that 104 octane stuff. It's £2.42 ltr and you need a pin number off the shop before you fillup. i.e. pay first. The lad behind the counter that they had only sold 2 tanks to date.

 

[Guy]

the only tescos that have it are in the south of england

[DaveJwxm]
