Tesco & Fuel...

I'm not a happy chap.

Noticed the other day my local Tesco has the Momentum99 Sign up, and I thought GREAT! I don't have to detour 5 miles on my way home from work to stick some nice fuel in the Clio.

So i drive the car around 30 miles after the low fuel light has come on as was waiting for pay day, I get to the pump and low and behold i cant find the 99 pump anywhere. They DON'T HAVE ONE!

WHY TESCO? WHY ADVERTISE IT WHEN YOU DON'T BLOODY HAVE IT?

I spoke to the staff and they said they Never sold it, and no plans to sell it and have NO IDEA why the sign is up.

I didn't have enough to get me to elsewhere for some V so was forced to stick some poop 95 in. (only a little mind until tomorrow on way to work)

I'm going to complain!

Which Tesco is this? I live south Birmingham and fill up at various Tesco stores including almost weekly drives to Cov and I've never found a store which didn't have Momentum99

It will run fine on 95ron, most 182 owners use it.

I know it will, But for the extra 5p or £2.50 per tank I would rather the better fuel.

No idea why you would want to run a Clio on 99. I know my Cupra says 98+ must be used or it will make less power.

How much less it doesnt say. Either way it get 99 everytime no questions asked.

.... its a Clio 172, not exactly the normal clio.
It says on the door, 98 recommend.
Did you ignore the thread?
