Anyone else noticed that BP Ultimate isn't as good as it used to be. I just filled up on Shell V-Power (it was 11cpl cheaper) and the XR feels a hell of a lot better on it compared to Ultimate. I always used to use Ultimate, gave me more power and better economy but lately economy has been going down hill on it. I've now run two tanks of V-Power and am getting an extra 30-40k per tank over the Ultimate, what's going on? Has BP dropped the ball with their new formula that they are advertising (noticed it now has 5x more cleaning power apparently) or has Shell figured out what works. I might go run a couple of tanks of Vortex98 now to see how that goes.
Also just for the record my car has always been extremely fussy with petrol, probably due to the high compression of the engine, and it has always up until now run best on Ultimate.
