BHP very run down, and even though nearer, the road to and back from that station is really bad. But I still stick to Petron form my smiles points. 3000 get RM45 fuel woh!.....

V-Power Racing is priced @RM2.45? is it worth to pay for it? too bad Melaka don't have this type of petrol although in the list has one. Visit the station but only normal Ron97 V-Power

Probably slow sales so they rather not stock......

If no extra RON then IMHO not worth it. With such price difference should give at least 3 extra RON (RON100) .

Same here, only fill up Petron.
Already applied as well for BHP card but already 1mth still no card sent to me (and their website claims will send in 2 weeks only!)

Heard for some countries the V power racing is Ron 98....

I used to have BP card, way before BHP came into picture, but the card became faulty, so I just switch all to Esso at that time. Then when Esso took over Mobil, have more stations to fill up at.
Then when Esso sold off to Petron, they changed from Esso smiles card to Petron Miles card. They say once apply the Petron card they will transfer all points within 2 weeks or 1 month (can't remember) but they actually did it within a week....

Petron one very good, the card they give immediately at the stations, not like BHP.

When it was first introduced here, it was RON99. Singapore sells it as 99 too. Shell Sgp has RON98 as "Premium" I think.

Too bad here back to Ron97. In some EU countries up to Ron100 even.....

yeap.....back then stick only to petronas...but when i work with company that used mobil/esso for lorry petrol use.....i test fill up with mobil/esso...first tank it became worst than petronas...but magically the 2nd tank on the bike turn out i save rm1/per fill up.. usually rm6 full tank everyday....when using mobil/esso just need rm5 for the same distance and route and riding style....


so maintaining it till today.....

plus.....petron now i think the only petrol station that give u free gift everytime u fill up minimum rm50 (usually small mineral water or small box tissue)........



but sometimes i'll pump any petrol came into my mind

RM2.45 is cheap lo in relative sense...
dont hurt for me to pump 4-5 full tanks of it considering my altis only use about 1 tank a month if i am not around....

Myth: Ron97 increases engine POWEEERR*

Fact: Ron97 increases EEGGOOOO



*refering to average car design for fuel economy


At a recent fuel up at BHP. A lady in a white Swift with hello kitty motif asks the attendant to fill up while she goes grocery shopping (1st infraction). Upon finishing her week's shopping in the petrol station's store, she returns to her car just in time to notice the attendant had filled with the low-grade-only-for-peasants RON95 instead of RON97! Wat a disastur! and argues with the attendant.
