Its possible it can only run on 98ron or higher.

My bro's Alpina needed a ron slightly higher than the supermarket 'premium' options.

I remember, my Mum's old Fiat needed 5 star...


LOL i remeber 2 and 4 star :y

What about 3 and 5, or am I showing my age?... :D :D :D

Probably :D, but I remember them as well :-X

I noticed very little difference in the MV6 when I swapped between Morrisons petrol and Esso Supreme -
*maybe* ran a little smoother, but 240 miles red light to red light on 70 quid's worth, both times. (give or take a couple of miles).
Obviously I got better MPG out of the esso stuff, seeing as it's at least 5p/l more expensive, but in terms of miles/£ it works out the same.
