Shell heading into Porthmadog 147.9
Shell Cannock rd, Wolverhampton 139.9
Shell Bangor (North wales) 142.9
Asda Kettering 141.7

Theres little rhyme or reason to regional price differences

Our local supermarkets are not now the cheapest, unless instore discounts and vouchers are taken into account

Morrisons Lichfield is dearer than Shell Lichfield by 1p/ltr

I dont know many S/E cabbies who would want a fuelcard, what with all fuel purchases being recorded along with dates/times and mielages, it doesnt leave much leeway for losing any for the taxman....lol


Mine doesn't log the mileage. Are you saying that S/Emp cabbies evade paying lawfully due tax??????????????? :shock:

Morrisons up to 145.9 now top BP same price but you can't get near the place everybody is desperately trying to fill up because they know the next delivery will be another 2p a litre higher
