Does anyone have any experience of driving in Europe on a tuned car and the availability of 99ron fuel? Have a trip to Switzerland planed in May and wanted to take the RS3.

I have taken my RS3 and the Aston Martin and a RS4 to Germany and France and Sweden via Denmark, I usually go Hull - Rotterdam so have done the Netherlands, The fuel pumps in Germany are all black (not green for unleaded) so takes a bit of working out and they don't usually specify 97 RON. Looking at taking the RS3 towards Berlin in the summer.

 

The roads tend to be better over there,

 

Enjoy

Look for 98, A98, Super Plus, Premium 98, Premium Super, Sans plomb 98, A100, Ultimate, V-Power  :)

Petrol in Netherlands is more expensive!

Driven my car(s) to France, Spain, Portugal and others.  Never had problems finding 98/99 Ron fuel anywhere and the roads are nearly always an absolute dream to drive on compared to the UK!

 

Enjoy yourself!

France is standardised to 98 RON - it is available everywhere.  No 99 though so bring a full tank of Momentum with you!

 

It is also rather expensive compared to Blighty.
