BP looks promising then.

What I dont understand is how one Shell station can charge 84.9p and another one 6 miles away can charge 81.9p (according to www.aapetrolbusters.com)

My heart bleeds for you . I'm paying 89.9p for 95 Ron. What's more, I've no choice either!

Wow, that's steep for Opti.

Local shell is 80.9 but local BP is 88.9p for BP Ultimate

The BP is better but not worth 8p a litre more.
