What petrol do you use?

[Seastormer]

I have the same engine but have only used standard unleaded.

Have previously used higher octane fuel in past cars I have owned with more horsepower and saw no gains, all I saw was my price go up when filling up so I have stuck with standard fuel for a few years now.

I wouldn't spent the extra money on it unless the manufacturer recommends it from stock, just my opinion of course.

Exactly the same as I do, and I found the same results too.

Am using 98 V Power since day one, can't complain

 

[Brooster89]

V Power for my Cupra 300.

 

[Cuprobbie]

Sainsbury’s Super Unleaded in my 2016 Cupra 290 Black Edition.

 

[CupraNJ]

Momentum 99 in my 300, and the 280. Never had any issues, that I'm aware of anyway. Both cars appeared to run well on it. Whilst it is a high octane, I've no idea if it is worse 'quality' when compared with Shell or BP.

I always use 98 octane fuel, so either Shell V Power 98 E5 or Neste Futura 98 E5 depending on which station is closer when it's time for a re-fill.

I've often seen Audi S3, BMW M2/3/4, saw a Cupra, as well as a few supercars fill up at my local Tesco...at first, I was thinking, seriously, you guys using supermarket fuel, if you can afford the car, why put supermarket fuel, then I realised Momentum 99...

Is UK the only European country who have 2x 99RON fuels? Eg..Tesco + Shell?

I only found out the new V-Power is 99RON today, they have a blog/questions page that was updated 3 days ago with this info...used to be 98RON.

Still, apparently Tesco Momentum 99 is V-Power 99 in terms of RON with Ethanol mix, but just has different additives for cleaning...

V-Power is still just shy of 10p/ltr different then Tesco, so no thank you lol

V Power mainly but Momentum when i'm feeling poor for a Revo stage 1 car.

 

[CupraGeezer]

Tesco Momentum 99 in my 280, based on price and convenience.

Not sure I buy in to the idea that supermarket fuels are poor quality. I ran my Mondeo on Tesco petrol (95 RON) to 175k miles without any problems.

Well after using V-power for many years and being decidedly against supermarket fuels, I tried Momentum 99 as it was their high performance better quality fuel. I have been pleasantly surprised as I have had no issues at all . In fact the car performs very well with this fuel in addition to the other benefits in terms of being cheaper etc

Agreed. Ran last 2 cars (400HP & 200HP) to 136K and 164K miles on nothing but supermarket fuel. No engine problems, but body rust became a pain.
