Petrol 12p a litre cheaper than Diesel...

[Woody3]

My local(ist) petrol station (Shell) has diesel priced at 142.9p per litre and petrol priced at 130.9p per litre. 12p a litre difference!

However, Tesco, Morrisons etc have diesel priced at 137.9p per litre and petrol at 130.9p per litre. A mere 7p a litre difference.

Any reason why this is? Is it an error on Shell's part? Just seems like a mahoosive difference in price? Have I missed something?

Ive noticed my local garage often takes 2p off one and adds it onto the other and vice versa.
