The legislative process to permit the introduction of petrol containing up to 10% ethanol is expected to be completed by very late 2012 or early 2013.  Once the enabling legislation is in place, the product, which will bear the name E10, may be sold at petrol stations.  

The higher octane petrol blend, usually known as Super Premium, contains much reduced levels of ethanol as a general rule, so this may be worth considering for those owners of historic vehicles who are concerned about possible adverse effects from ethanol addtion to normal 95 octane unleaded petrol.
