In Germany, Shell has a 100 octane petrol available which:

Dank der einzigartigen Formel für Shell V-Power wird das Handling Ihres Fahrzeugs verbessert.

that's the first time I've seen petrol's effect on the handling documented....??? or is it just buzz...

Anyway, it might be a good thing to download the list of Shell stations to your navigator next time you drive through Germany.

oh yes, but in a world where 98 RON  is disappearing for what seems to be political (=ridiculous) reasons, it my be good news still :)

It should make the engine PERFORM better - how much it improves HANDLING is however an open question. But more or better distributed power is of course always nice to have on-tap :)

By mistake once I filled mine with 95 ROZ, and that was very pooor.
I could hear the motor ignite much to early, and no pull at all.
