Does Shell sell Optimax in SA yet? I'm going over at Easter and always use Optimax. If not, can you get BP Ultimate in Adelaide?

^^^^^^^ What he said.....I always thought that there was some government or epa restriction from selling Optimax in SA until I was down in Mt Gambier a few months ago and they were selling it there but you cannot buy it in Adelaide. You can also get Mobile Synergy 8000. Cheers

You should try mobile highoctane. It's better than optimax imo.

But yes - Adelaide caters for us high octane users

Thanks Guys.
Yeah, the Shell website talks about WA legislation making difficult to sell Optimax, and tassie storage problems, but no mention of SA. I look forward to being back in Adelaide again for a week or so.
