Default Tesco momentum 99 petrol

have always run the cossie on shell v power in the time i have had the car over 7 years now,but heard mixed views on the tesco 99 ron fuel some good/some bad.
so i thought id give it a trial run to see how the cossie ran off it??
for some reason the cossie doesnt like cold starting off this fuel coughs & splutters a lot off it & finds it hard to find a decent idle,but once up to temp is fine & then idles as good as when on v power.
on boost there does seem to be quite a difference in the way the boost kicks in & power compared to v power(as in more) & have also noticed the exhaust tone has got a lot louder also making me think there is a bit more power being produced somewhere??
quit impressed with its performance,just dont like the cold starting side of it & the fuel economy side of things seems to be less than v power
just wondering if anyone else has tryed it & what did u think of it??,did anyone else have cold start issues off running the tesco momentum fuel????
