Sl!m Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 "Hi xxxxx, You are correct; fuel companies at the moment are experiencing a shortage in stock due to a refinery issue earlier this year and therefore running low on certain fuels. This is an industry wide problem, so BP is not the only company experiencing these difficulties. At the moment, the quoted time in which this problem will be rectified is April, however I cannot guarantee this. Bp does aplogise to all our loyal customers for this inconvenience and I assure you that BP is doing everything humanly possible to get the stock levels back up to standards. As BP is committed to providing quality fuels to our customers no alternative has been adopted as yet.

Primordial Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Well until the 98RON fuel gods decide to stock us up again, I think that this would be a good thread to list places where 98RON CAN still be bought. Would you be happy to update the first thread with locations Sam or should I start a new thread?

JAS-25T Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 lucky i have half a tank and my car won't be driven till like autosalon or something lol Most 98RON petrols "go off" so to speak after around 2 weeks. The additives they use break down and it is no longer 98RON. In saying that, I wouldn't be keeping any petrol in the car for a long period of time.
