I've been trying differnt flavours of RON fuel in my new SRT.
Started with 95 and did a run from Oxford to Leeds approx 170 miles - got approx 17 mpg
Did the same run last week but filled up with 99 RON (Shell V-Power) and managed to get up to 20.5 mpg (pretty similar driving both times).
Did notice a slight improvement in mid-range pickup from the 99 RON.
Still have to do the maths on the cost effectivness of using 99 RON as it can vary from 0.92 up to 0.99 / litre
