Shell V Power Nitro Plus alternatives

I gather that you recommend Shell V Power Nitro Plus petrol, but as Shell garages are thin on the ground in my parts, are there any other suppliers' super unleaded brands of equivalent quality?

No. Others are slightly lower RON or lack the additives in Shell, but BP, Esso and Total Supers are all a lot better than 95Ron 'premium' unleaded.
