Amazing!

I was sure fuel 95 minus octane is sold only in Russia!
Normal "Euro" petrols are 95 and 98 octane unleaded, and for older vehicles
yoy can get gas either leaded or with natrium (=sodium) / kalium
(=potassium) based additive. In Finland taxing is such that leaded petrols
are not sold any more, instead there are 98/99 octane petrols with Na/K
additives.

The price? It is about 1,1 to 1,4 US$, but not for a gallon, it is price of
one litre.

Now I understand, why nobody reported me any trials of turbo or mechanical
supercharging of Alpine engines...
