Thieving Petrol Station Owners
 

After being stupid enough to run my car down real low on fuel i had no option but to call at a BP garage, i thought its worth a try as i usually use V Power. I start putting the fuel in untill i notice 106p per litre. Once i spotted this i stopped and paid my £5.

Back to V Power at 94p

Anyone else have garages that take the piss

My local BP were robbing me blind to,£1.09.9 Per litre.

They have now closed and Tesco have bought the garage.Cheap Tesco fuel soon.:D

I have never run car on Tesco fuel, is it any good?

Ive ran my GTR and all my scoobies on tesco 99 ron and its spot on...plus very cheap!:luxhello:

Cant say I notice any difference between V Power or Tesco 99.

There is a 6p a litre difference between my local Shell station, and the next one(15miles away). Robbin barstewards

I might have to try Tesco then, i suppose as long as its not running on normal unleaded it should be ok

Sainsburys Super for 86p :thumb:

Even Sainsbury take the piss now... 95RON fuel costs 84.9 p per litre at Meadowhall and only 83.9 p per litre at my local station at Archer Road, they dont sell SUL though. Sainsbury in Derby is cheaper still. F*ckers!

Posted this on another BP thread about 2 weeks ago

Was in the wifes 206 last weekend and filled up at a BP and as i was putting in NUL at 84.9p per litre i noticed they had SUL (not ultimate) at a reasonable 104.9 p per litre :eek:

It's bleedin robbery :mad:

I can beat you on that one

Sainsburys Super for 82p
Tesco 99 83p
V Power 97p
BP Ultimate 103p

v power where i live is 91.9p

The garage had a big sign saying BP Ultimate TRY IT!!!!!! So i did robbing tw*ts

Makes me fekkin cross, there's no real reason for petrol prices being different over 90% of the UK.

OK, you might expect to pay a bit more in Penzance or Wick, but you get the idea.

Round here, I can almost SEE the refineries at Immingham and Killinghome, less than 20 miles away, but we have some of the dearest fuel around.

Robbers, like has already been posted.

"Oh but we don't make any profit out of selling petrol."

I have tried mine on various 97-99 ron, i recently had the old bill following for no reason, I needed some fuel, so i pulled into a Jet station, Gased her up, 20 - 30 miles later, my car runs so much better, any one tried jets 99 ron?

mark

Don't think it's available here.......:(

Think I paid 91.9 last week for V-Power :) Had to travel 10 miles to get the stuff though :(

Quick question regarding Tesco fuel - On other forums i've been on in the past they have said stay away from supermarket fuel as some times it's not as good quality as it should be. The wife has been using their unleaded in her car while Tesco's have had the 5p off promotion running. She occasionally notices a loss of power and a slight splutter, could it be the fuel that's causing this? Her car is only 18 months old. Does cheaper fuel mean poorer quality? Anyone else had problems?

:cuckoo:

ive had no problems with tesco 99 in my sti or my previous wrx, good stuff and good value as faras im concerned!

I thought Supermarket fuels where just the big companies rebadged fuel??

Tesco 99 is made specifically for Tesco with a bit of beetroot juice in it as well (well some sort of ethanol) meant to be a guaranteed 99 ron. Do Jet do a 99 ron then??

I must admit to being a fuel freak having only ever put shell petrol in my cars. Thought I'd give Tesco's 99 a go! Seemed ok, went back to shell for the next tank. Well it may have been me but, the car seemed far better with Tesco's than it did with shell!!! It seemed a lot smoother throughout the rev range for some reason. So it's Tesco's all the way for me, and a nice 6p/litre saving to boot.

I can see them from mine, Buncefield opposite me, less than 1/2 a mile. But still find Tesco 99ron upto 10p a litre cheaper :eek: Have 2 Shells round here just over a mile appart, 2p a litre difference :wonder:

Have not got a Sainsbury's close to me but know a few people that use without any complaints :thumb:

Tescos 99 for me too :thumb:

Tesco's 99 definately seems to spice things up a bit with my WRX.

BP Ultimate is cr*p as far as I'm concerned.... over priced and doesn't seem to be any better than the 95 RON Sainsburys stuff I was forced to put once.

Yes... well they do at a station near Grantham... And my car has not run as smooth for months..! perhaps a coincidence, but 3/4 of a tank full later, Its still running sweet..

The local Total garage in Blackburn wanted 99.9p for their SUL. Robbing gits.
I let them know they were robbing me blind but i think the attendent didn't have a fooking clue nor cared. :mad:

He's a git as well. :lol1:

I ended up putting £30 V Power in but i think i am going to have a go with Tesco next
