Have a massive protest on

Signs all over the place, people all over the place...

"don't buy esso"
"hoot if you dont buy esso" etc

Pretty mad, even got these massive windmills
Surprised the police haven't moved them on as they have been there since yesterday and there is easily over 50 of them !!

Am I not right in thinking that Shells claims about the fuel were put to the test, and it didn't make a significant difference to performance? As for cleaning, I imagine it'd be cheaper to chuck in a shot of Redex every so often with your normal fuel and achieve the same results?

Its proven that the higher the octane or RON the better the car runs. It only really affects Turbo's anyway. Look at Japan they get spot on 100 RON, if not more.
