Local garage bins Super Unleaded.

Our local Texaco has been refurbed and is now a CO-OP site, surprised to find they no longer sell super-unleaded.
All new pumps that have just two fillers either unleaded or diesel.

Most places do have it, don't they? I'm sure just one pump wouldn't kill them.

1 pump means 1 more tank and all the hassle that goes with it. If it's not selling then why bother.

Well they had super prior to the changeover, so presumably the tank must still be there. Which is why I find it a bit strange. I'm sure most garages around this way have super too, the problem being they aren't that local.

My car likes it. Goes better and uses less for about 40p a gallon more.

Super unleaded makes up less than 20% of total UK vehicle fuel sales, so some petrol stations, particularly in rural or poor areas, can find it marginal to stock super unleaded.

So they're throwing 20% of their profits away. This is within the M25 and also incredibly busy place most of the time.
