Markie Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I just thought they were doing a trial down south, i couldn't believe it, it's great 'cause the nearest shell garage to me is about 12 miles. Theres a Shell off the A48 fellar, not far from Newport road. It that 12 miles from Penarth? This must be the first one in Wales I drove bloody miles to get optimax last night!!! Has it not got detergents like shell then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downimpact Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 yeah the A48 is about 12 miles from Sully. Tesco is much closer i think it might of changed about a month ago was just unobservant I've heard it doesn't have the same cleaning as optimax, but not sure if it's true.

vvteye Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 You can get Optimax at Crickhowell. It's a village between Abergavenny and Brecon. Not on route if you are travelling from Cardiff to Abergavenny but despite this CardiffSupra came close enough to smell it! (or would that be Shell it.)

CardiffSupra Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 LOL, I didnt see a shell, Then again i did go the long way around.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markie Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I have to watch the exit to that garage.. It caught my front the last time I went there.. I think if you angle it right its okay, as I have not caught it before there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
