I just stated some facts which I read in an article on Pistonheads written by a guy who works for one of the oil companies. At what point did I undermine you
Petrol whether it be unleaded/super contains Ethanol. Infact they tested it in several countries where they crop sugar cane/rape seeds etc and it had no adverse effects

How come the Brazilians have been using Bio-Ethanol based fuels for something like 20-30 years. Oh yes, I think it might be due to Ethanol not being highly corrosive.
Last time I checked, Ethanol wasn't an acid and corrosion means something being 'eroded' by acid.

we've used BioEthanol mixes for a year and a bit now.
Methanol or touline - they'd possibly rot the standard rubber pipes

water and salt is the worst, and that gets sprayed all over the outside of fuel tank.
the least of my worries would be the fuel tank rotting from the inside out

I wouldnt run a decent turbocharged car on 95 anyway..it would be okay if your just plodding along but if you like to boost it then your really going to risk getting det.
As above. If I used normal fuel in mine I could wave bye-bye to my apexes very quickly.

I have to say I filled the Astra up with V-Power the other day and it doesn't make the Remus pop at all
Fill it up with T99 and it pops on every gear change there is a difference in the mix between the two.
It's deffo faster on T99 as well, 100% sure of that.

Also its greener to the enviroment due to the bio ethanol content.

I ran mine on V-Power and it popped like fucker. Tried Tesco 99 and it didn't run anywhere near as nice.
Strange.
