However, please remember this is just one chap--so I don't have any conclusive evidence where 5-10 folks say the same thing. Incidentally, I used to service my old Zen at Hind Automobiles (the HP pump next to the Kings Circle flyover) and the Maruti Service Station guys there (the service station owners were tenants, I think, and hence had no direct financial interest in the pump) used to say the fuel quality at the pump was excellent. The guys were pretty trustworthy and did a good job in the nearly 3 years I used to go there (ended only around a month ago, when I sold my Zen). I have 'complete' trust in only one station in Bombay--New Bombay Auto at Linking Road in Bandra, opp Shopper's Stop. Incidentally, they have Speed 97 too. I used to live in Matunga too, but have gone to Bandra quite often just to tank up!  | |

I'm not sure about the shell outlet on brookfields; I'm yet to hear on recent updates from them. you can still take a deviation on silk board junction - drive down 2 KMs towards hosur road and you'll find a shell outlet on the left hand side while going towards electronic city. I'll be planning to fill from there regularly. | |

I'd rather choose Shell than going for other brands anywhere. I dont mind even going for a short or long drive once in a week, fortnight or month (depending on your use and the amount u fill) to fill Shell. That would definately benefit on a long run. I'm not trying to insist on the one at Hosur road, if you find one at brookfields, thats better. however, I wont go away from Shell and fill other brands only because of the traffic or rush hour. | |

| BHPian  | Guys in B'lore: Please never fill from the IBP after crossing "Lemon Grass" on the LHS; The quality is pathetic and untill recently they used to operate only the single measure pump(w/ only # of ltrs)... Really easy to mug you!!! |

| Hi One of the Best Pumps in Mumbai Eastern Suburbs is the Godrej Pump on Vikhroli West , LBS marg. The Fuel quality is never in doubt. They have started taking Credit Cards also. Yes on sundays they are open only till 1 pm and they close otherwise daily before 9 pm |

. Have been using the IOCL pump in NH8 just before the diversion to domestic airport while coming to Gurgaon, and found it quite trustworthy.In Gurgaon, found the IOCL pump on MG Road (near Sadar Bazar) good enough. There are two pumps next to each other, I am referring to the one which is nearer to the Circle. | |
