[QUOTE="Shotgun, post: 574220, member: 23827"] Selling RON98 petrol by saying that its RON97+ is like selling a 535i and badging it 528i. It does not make marketing sense for the company to do. In my opinion, because anything above RON95 is sold at international market prices, means it is not government controlled and therefore a free market product to sell. Also, all Malaysian base fuels, regardless of brand comes from the same refinery. If Shell has access to RON98, it means all other brands will have access to it as well. So the conclusion would be, if nobody else in the market has RON98, neither does Shell. As for Singapore, I presume they source their fuels from a refinery located in Singapore and would therefore have access to different quality fuel. That's probably why they have RON98 there for V Power Racing. [/QUOTE]
