Apologies, I should have said I want to still fill my car with 98 but have that number represented by the RON+MON/2 formula ;)

I understand what you meant in your post though, numbers are irrelevant as long as we understand what they mean.

P.S Thats interesting info in regards to the aussie MON rating being scrapped too.
