    Hi. This is probably obvious so apologies if so. Where would I find confirmation, or otherwise, of whether E10 fuel is ok for my 2007 F430 please? Thanks. Tony.

    I would use Super unleaded which is not E10 for now.
    I think I read somewhere that cars made after 2010 should be OK, so its not worth the risk.

    Seek out Esso Synergy Supreme+ 99 over Shell Vpower if you can.

    Although Esso pumps have E5 labels on them, Esso Synergy Supreme+ 99 is actually ethanol free (except, due to technical supply reasons, in Devon, Cornwall, North Wales, North England and Scotland). Legislation requires E5 labels on pumps that dispense unleaded petrol with ‘up to 5% ethanol’, including those that contain no ethanol, which is why Esso displays them on Synergy Supreme+ 99 pumps.

    There’s currently no requirement for renewable fuel, like ethanol, to be present in super unleaded petrol.
