So with the plumetting price of fuel, I decided to treat my car to a tank of BP Ultimate rather than its usual diet of Tesco 99. Never had a problem with Tesco fuel but thought I would see if I could feel a difference.

Was just about to fill up, literally hand on the pump and I nearly fell over. Unleaded, 113.9p, Super (97) - 159.9p!

This seems outrageous to me, are any other people seeing this or is it just my local BP taking the puddle? In my experience super is normally about 5-10p/l more but this seems barmy.

Probably reflects how slowly they get through their stock of Super. Chances are it was bought in when prices were high and they haven't had to replenish since the fall started.
