Asda Bromborough £1.26.7 a litre

The latest round of cuts takes the forecourt price back to October’s two and a half year low of 126.7p when an aggressive petrol price war saw all four supermarkets slug it out to be the cheapest.

I do not understand why people travel miles wasting petrol to buy cheaper petrol. I know of 3 fools that do this, waste petrol and time, more wear and tear on the old jalopy too.

My missus likes to go to different towns to shop, so if fuel is cheaper then I will get it, I don't travel for miles to specifically buy fuel and I count Bromborough as local from Heswall
as I don't go to Birkenhead to shop, to me the Croft Centre is the new Birkenhead, Liscard and Birkenhead have nothing except high parking charges, which to me out-ways fuel charges if I do go out of my way, even though most of the petrol stations in Wallasey and Bikenhead charge higher prices, Shell since they sold their refinery are just as expensive as BP and they always charge higher prices.

The Asda cut will take its petrol down to 112.7p a litre - the cheapest since October 2010. Asda's diesel will drop to 118.7p a litre.

With the added discount from previous store purchases my fuel at Tesco yesterday was below £1 / litre. I never thought I would see that again!

If you happen to be a CostCo member, they now have a filling station in Liverpool. very handy if you work over that way - not much use if you don't! They claim to be selling "Premium Diesel" for slightly less than others, but who knows what Brand it is or what additives are in it.

I have a diesel car and it is quite selective when it comes to fuel. I get most MPG on normal Shell diesel and the least on Tesco. It doesn't run correctly on Morrisons fuel or Sainsburys fuel.

I tried two tanks full of CostCo diesel and wouldn't use it again. It caused the DPF to regenerate 6 times in 5 weeks, which reduces MPG down to 10-15MPG in town and 20MPG on the motorway. So any saving is gone. That means it isn't burning as clean as Shell Diesel and the DPF is getting blocked with soot far quicker. Shell Diesel doesn't do that, I can go for ages before any hint of DPF regeneration.

Not all fuel is the same!

I agree, I stick to Shell diesel on my 170,000 mile diesel wherever possible

On my petrol cars (both are 34 years old) I use Shell premium (whatever name they call it this week) because of the higher octane/RON which I have the cars tuned to. I might need to change to Esso premium as this may be the only ethanol-free fuel now available.

When I take my engines apart I am amazed how clean they are, and I've never had my diesel's DPF clog up (it doesn't do flashy things like regeneration).

My diesel is exactly the same. I always found Shell to be very competitively priced to the supermarkets, particularly around Ellesmere Port, so always used that.
