E5 will still be available and there is the option of E0. Last couple of tanks of the season fill with the good stuff.

Apparently not so - 'E5' will only be available in the 'Super' format fuel and i've never even seen 'E0' although the urban myth society said one of the existing 'Supers' was ethanol free but never confirmed to my knowledge!

So it will be available. Esso don't advertise it but their top brand is E0 even though it has E5 on the pump.
Although our pumps have E5 labels on them, our Synergy Supreme+ 99 is actually ethanol free (except, due to technical supply reasons, in Devon, Cornwall, North Wales, North England and Scotland). Legislation requires us to place these E5 labels on pumps that dispense unleaded petrol with ‘up to 5% ethanol’, including those that contain no ethanol, which is why we display them on our Synergy Supreme+ 99 pumps.
If you need low ethanol you are going to have to pay for it!
