Ello!

So for the first time I'm taking the MINI over to the Island, normally the Alfa gets the runs down to the Island but I want to get in some decent drives (military road for one) in the MINI over christmas so I've bought a boot protect so Ozzy can travel in the MINI.

Does anyone know if there is a Shell station on the island (preferably near Ryde) that sells v-power (the only fuel I'll use!) ?

If any one else is down there look out for me!

Do they have petrol stations on the IOW?!

I took mine other there last week on business. Does the Shell website not say?

fill up before you get on the ferry, some years ago we used to go to Ryde & could only get normal unleaded.

I know they have petrol stations, I go there all the time! I need (more like want!) V-power though and not everywhere Shell station sells it.

Look here: Shell in the UK - Search for a Shell Service Station

Just had a quick look by typing in Ryde and it said the nearest Shell Garage was 6 odd miles away on England.

Jamie, if you want to know for definate, send a PM to minijo -

She lives over there and co-organises the Isle of Wight Run every year, I'm sure she'll be happy to let you know for sure if you can get V Power there
