BOB B Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I would love to come to this but the car is in a thousand bits and will not be ready by then. Darren, I managed to get the Turbo's off in the end, but still struggling to get to the top front bolt on the passenger side engine mount. I may need a hand when putting the Turbo's back on, I'll be in touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attero Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) What's the best quality fuel near Barnstaple or en route? There's a good couple of hundred miles between two shell stations. Edit: actually it's 125 miles. That isn't too bad. Still be nice to fill up a little at Barnstaple if possible.

ripped_fear Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Cheers to everyone coming along going to make day 2 of our trip pretty awesome. I echo what luke says above though we are a bit concerned as we cant see any shell garages local to barnstaple so if anyone knows somehwere that will do the job give us a shout please.

HELLBOY666 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Hey guys look on there fuel station finder page it'll give you every shell garage and there is a few in Taunton but non in Barnstaple so fill up a little earlier and by the time you get down the southwest theres about 4 around Hayle and Truro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Just download the shell app. You can select a garage, preferences etc and maps will run the satnav too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attero Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Thanks but we've already got the app ready and have checked over this but the route we are taking has a large 125 gap between two stations (across the north of Cornwall). I found that the closest station in between requires a 2 hour round journey off route when we reach barnstaple to fill up. Would be nice not to have to crawl a large section of the journey being in... you know, Supras and all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Ian Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Guys if your struggling finding Super unleaded there are TWO Texaco stations that sell 97RON unleaded on or near your route Bideford SSN EX39 2PJ Pilton Bridge SSTN Barnstable EX32 7AA Cheers -Ian- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HELLBOY666 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Or we can bring some jerry cams with us hahahaa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 The problem is is that my Supra is mapped to run on VPower. I've had Tesco 99 in it and its still prone to a little knock so the closer the quality to VPower, the better. Jerry cans could be an option just for that little boost.

ripped_fear Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 we were working it out and we think we may be worrying to much, both of our cars are mapped for jdm fuel thats the issue, if you are able to bring a jerry that would be awesome just incase but we should be ok i reckon.

Attero Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Wow, you sure mate? That'd be awesome for piece of mind! Where would you be coming from then? Presumably closer to okehampton? Cheers! I'll bring a jerry bud /QUOTE] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
