£109.9 ? Don't you mean 109.9p

Fuel prices are up 40-50% compared to their lows of $28 a barrel in Jan 2016. Now about $19 higher. Also factor in the plunging value of the pound vs the dollar. Pound is down about 20% against dollar since brexit. All fuel is traded in dollar. So that 40-50% increase in fuel now has a 20% surcharge on it till the pound recovers. £1 a litre is a long way off now.
I think what most garages like BP, Shell and others charge really depends on what the local supermarkets are charging. Remember supermarkets can afford to run petrol as a loss leader. Discounts on fuel offset by profits made in store. A £50 shop instore will make them a lot of money. People come for the fuel may also shop instore too.
This road tax paye idea I don't think will work at present. Collecting money at the pump is a very efficient and easy way to generate taxes. You are in effect taxed for what you use. I do think cost of tax disc should rise as 0-35 quid on some cars is nothing. As more cars become eco friendly and fuel use drops the government will quickly change tact. Many years off this as the technology is not main stream.
Not close enough to a Morrisons to make this deal work for me. £50 is a lot to spend in one shop for me. Assuming the goods are not overly priced in first place.

Was a bit bored so did some more research. These are forum posts I've come across:
"I previously worked in the Grangemouth refinery.
You are correct that they all get their fuel from the same refineries, but not from the same areas.
Supermarkets, Texaco and the like filled their tankers from another area of the refinery.
Main players (Esso, Shell, BP) got theirs centrally in the refinery from different storage tanks."
"I work for a company that supplies additives to many of the UK fuel suppliers and the answer is yes fuel qualities do differ between companies.
All base fuel in a particular area will come from the same refinery but each company then has its own type and amount of additive added.
Each company will define a minimum performance level that its fuel much achieve and this is achieved by using different additives or more or less of the same additive.
In terms of mpg then yes one of the benefits of a better fuel is more efficient burning and hence less fuel required to achieve the same bang !"
The list goes on. I'm not really sue why I'm posting this, you all seem to have made your mind up already

Oh you of little knowledge, T.May may be the leader of the Conservatives and Prime Minister but she can only kick MP's out of the cabinet not out of Westminster, They were voted in by their constituents.
As for the idiots as you call them they only want to be able to vote on " the best deal " that is good for the UK not the best deal that is obtainable. Do you want T.May tohave to except a deal that puts us in a worse position than if we remain.
And don't go on about there is the rest of the world, because places like China will want freedom of movement of their citizens the same as they have done in other counties they trade with. So instead of a flood of Poles nyou'll get a flood of Chinese. Not that some of them are already here.

So how do I know what sort of fuel economy I can expect?
From a buyer’s perspective, the best way to look at any fuel economy claims is to view them simply as a guide to a car’s relative fuel economy rather than its absolute fuel economy. If your current car is officially rated at 30mpg but you only achieve 24mpg in your own driving, then you can expect a reasonably similar ratio when you’re looking at a new car which is officially rated at 40mpg (so, expect to get roughly 32mpg).
Like I said, BMW say 78.5mpg & I said I get about 70mpg on the motorway. Sounds pretty reasonable to me.
I don't know why you doubt me. I wanted to know how much the journey to Heathrow & back cost me so I did a brim to brim test - £40 there & back, admittedly last year when diesel was a bit cheaper
Sorry but you cant change the laws of physics , drag at 80 mph much higher than at 56 mph
What is it with BMW/Audi drivers lol http://www.mpgforspeed.com/

I would counter by just giving you my own evidence
I drive up to Heathrow & back (from Cornwall) = 525 miles - for £40 of diesel
the 320d is actually more efficient @ 80mph than @ 55 mph

He states without going over 70MPH so perhaps you ought to read your evidence before posting such claims.

Just one question when the fuel,s transported by rail from refinery to storage depot say 100 miles away
How do they know what area of refinery it came from ie esso get it from center ? . As there is no identification only that they contain petrol/ diesel ect on rail tankers just the hazard codes ie 1203 petrol 1202 diesel
I,m sure you can answer this puzzling question, soon as you worked at refinery :wink:

Unfortunate that most people run way past the red light coming on though lol a absolute false economy even if on a budget, damage is caused that need not be.
As for filling up every 100 miles, its good to take a few minutes break from driving, I fill up and just grab a large flask of hot water, small water bottle (cooler) & a jar of Percol Black & Beyond from the kitchen before leaving with some sugar sachets you find everywhere... STOP, revive, SURVIVE :wink:

About right as Autocar attested to and best in class for its economy...
With the 3 Series, however, BMW’s claims turn out to be more honest than most. Once more taking the 320d as our example, BMW says it will do 61.4mpg; our own tests driving the car in a gentle but hardly saintly style yielded 56.8mpg.

21 Nov 16#72
While good advice generally not necessary. Also for many people running between a quarter and half a tank would mean stopping every 100 miles or for me almost every day.
I changed the fuel pump/pre filter assembly in the tank at 90k and there was virtually no sediment or corrosion in the tank.
For most regular servicing including the inline fuel filter (which often gets missed off) should be enough. As long as you don't run it almost dry regularly.

Big yawn. Sorry don't know if it's just getting out of bed or because Seaniboy is on his usual soapbox again. Any excuse.
fill the tank not far over half, you are burning fuel by carrying excess fuel - there is a reason airlines dont 'fill up' to the max, but never run below 1/4 tank where gunk sits and moves around whilst in motion - also erratic/bad driving does not only burn fuel, it disturbs the gunk sediment off the bottom of the tank
lastly regularly service your car/parts like you do with your own body with food, cleaning and change of whatever as needed.

The UK stating they are leaving the Eu is no different? Really? It's not like we voted to stay? There is no hostage taking. Money markets react to news. The UK having to renegoiate trade deals with every country is a huge thing. This mixed with lower interest rates against a US rising rates has not helped. Personally I think we need to start raising rates here.
Brexit will happen here. Even now the leave vote would still be 43-44% leave vs 45% remain according to the pollsters in the last month. For all the headlines and protests against the leave vote opinion has not really changed that much. Just the remain camp is more vocal.
£0.99 per litre if you spend £50 is okay. Personally I would rather have £5 off at the till instead but Morrisons clearly want to ensure you spend the money with them. I don't see all supermarkets matching this at the pump.
I know Sainsburys have done a few 7p off fuel vouchers at the till if you spend x amount on certain departments. I prefer free points or money off. Of course the larger tank you have the better these deals might be. 40 litre tank will get you almost £4. 100 litre tank gives you nearly £10 off your fuel. Most I suspect would save £4-5 at the pump.

20 Nov 16#59
The vote to leave certainly has happened. The drop in the pound was 100% because of that and the uncertainty relating to it. Not also helped by rising interest rates in the US putting more upward pressure on the dollar.
The reason for the rise lately in oil prices was the view that demand for oil was recovering and oil stocks in countries such as the US were falling. Mix that in with reduced investment to find new places to drill for oil. Not to mention OPEC eventually regaining control of the worldwide oil supply. This slight blip in prices from $54-$46 a barrel probably won't last long.

weve recently had a new engineer start where i work and his background was petrol/chemical background. Weve always had this debate at work about quality of fuel, we jumped on him when we found out where he had come from. He said the supermarket stuff does come from the same tank, its the additives that differ, and its the aditives that keep your injectors clean, your o2 sensors cleaner and basically keeps your engine healthier for longer, performing better. Ive filled up with asda crap, driven a mile or so and had the engine light come on, top it u with shell and its gone out. I know other people with different cars who have had the same issue just after filling up with supermarket fuel. Ive got a jap performance magazine, in it they tried to extract the maximum bhp from a car using the different fuels and the difference in bhp was quite a lot. Shell came out top.

It seems a bit odd that quality may vary yet the businesses selling the higher quality product choose not to market this fact.

putting redex into your tank every 6 fills is still cheaper than paying 5-10p a litre extra for BP or Shell.
Also, there is no evidence that their fuel offers anything better.
It all comes out of the same refinery and the only difference is additives, often so minute, it's barely detected by tests.
I suppose you've done your research rather than listening to the local drunk? Thought not.

I know :wink: it was a common hypothetical question, fact and resolution - plough that tax solely into public transport services and hey more people will have a travelpass with reliable service not a pollutant outside the door, win/win :wink:
I for one think road tax should be a monthly expensive lifted by PAYE, £50 for those in tax, £75 for higher tax payers more for any higher brackets - generally the more money one has the more they use the roads because fuel poverty of any kind is just a fairytale to most them. Road use is overused & underfunded, companies esp should pay higher per vehicle and force them to use rail more to drop off points and allow use of vehicles local/regional - the main roads are full of trucks, a public body company should be pulling rail freight for non profit as a environmental and road damage issue, but every government just keeps buying expensive road 'plaster' repairs.

Aint no government/party in 50 years evolved education past the Victorian structure, except from removing physical punishment (and more physical exercise). Welcome to a booming prebrexit Britain, lets see how this all pans out... :laughing:

Always makes me chuckle a little when I see the price of petrol/diesel. Don't miss it one bit. Ditched my petrol car in January for an EV - same price as my previous car lease + petrol at £1/litre for a far better car.
Good deal though. TBH EVs aren't cheaper, they're just a tax dodge. Government grants + no VED + tax on fuel is only 5%. Even out the tax burden and it wouldn't be cheaper. Cheers for subsidising my transportation, taxpayers :sunglasses:

Didn't get voucher on our big shop yesterday - is that offer starting tomo too?
Opening post
The discount, down from 109.9p, is for shoppers who spend £50 or more.
It will be available from tomorrow, with supermarket rivals expected to slash prices further.
Morrisons says the offer will run from November 21 to December 3. Customers who spend £50 or more in participating stores will receive a voucher that will allow them to pay the lower price.
doesn't work with £50 Amazon giftcard

Massive difference
I think what most garages like BP, Shell and others charge really depends on what the local supermarkets are charging. Remember supermarkets can afford to run petrol as a loss leader. Discounts on fuel offset by profits made in store. A £50 shop instore will make them a lot of money. People come for the fuel may also shop instore too.
This road tax paye idea I don't think will work at present. Collecting money at the pump is a very efficient and easy way to generate taxes. You are in effect taxed for what you use. I do think cost of tax disc should rise as 0-35 quid on some cars is nothing. As more cars become eco friendly and fuel use drops the government will quickly change tact. Many years off this as the technology is not main stream.
Not close enough to a Morrisons to make this deal work for me. £50 is a lot to spend in one shop for me. Assuming the goods are not overly priced in first place.
-I never touch supermarket petrol; my mate's mechanic says it will make your engine blow up
- i've used supermarket fuel for 100,000k miles and it's never done my car any harm
- it all comes from the same refinery i've seen the same tanker going everywhere
- COLD only saving a pound or two on full tank
-COLD- 99p last year
-COLD Not a deal they have been raising the prices for weeks
-Still too high look at other countries
-Tax is way too high on petrol; government takes 80% of revenue
-been this price for weeks in my local Esso
"I previously worked in the Grangemouth refinery.
You are correct that they all get their fuel from the same refineries, but not from the same areas.
Supermarkets, Texaco and the like filled their tankers from another area of the refinery.
Main players (Esso, Shell, BP) got theirs centrally in the refinery from different storage tanks."
"I work for a company that supplies additives to many of the UK fuel suppliers and the answer is yes fuel qualities do differ between companies.
All base fuel in a particular area will come from the same refinery but each company then has its own type and amount of additive added.
Each company will define a minimum performance level that its fuel much achieve and this is achieved by using different additives or more or less of the same additive.
In terms of mpg then yes one of the benefits of a better fuel is more efficient burning and hence less fuel required to achieve the same bang !"
The list goes on. I'm not really sue why I'm posting this, you all seem to have made your mind up already

She would be essentially be kicking them out.
As for the idiots as you call them they only want to be able to vote on " the best deal " that is good for the UK not the best deal that is obtainable. Do you want T.May tohave to except a deal that puts us in a worse position than if we remain.
And don't go on about there is the rest of the world, because places like China will want freedom of movement of their citizens the same as they have done in other counties they trade with. So instead of a flood of Poles nyou'll get a flood of Chinese. Not that some of them are already here.
Dirty, but the right thing doesn't always mean doing the right thing. Democracy needs it.
I voted out, I expect May to honour the winning vote. If we voted in, I'd expect her to do the same. Sure, I'd be annoyed my choice didn't' win...but I wouldn't expect idiots who are against it to try and derail it.
I,m sure you can get 70 mpg but not at 80 mph
From a buyer’s perspective, the best way to look at any fuel economy claims is to view them simply as a guide to a car’s relative fuel economy rather than its absolute fuel economy. If your current car is officially rated at 30mpg but you only achieve 24mpg in your own driving, then you can expect a reasonably similar ratio when you’re looking at a new car which is officially rated at 40mpg (so, expect to get roughly 32mpg).
Like I said, BMW say 78.5mpg & I said I get about 70mpg on the motorway. Sounds pretty reasonable to me.
I don't know why you doubt me. I wanted to know how much the journey to Heathrow & back cost me so I did a brim to brim test - £40 there & back, admittedly last year when diesel was a bit cheaper

What is it with BMW/Audi drivers lol

or it comes to standstill .Sorry but your talking load of bo***cks
popping to Morrisons for my £50 shop this morning, stocking up on Pringles @ £1 :smiley:
Sorry but could you please learn to read !!!
Does it say 70mpg @ 80 mph
No chance unless going down long steep hill or been towed
Yes they are incredibly frugal on fuel for there size but not 70 mpg at 80 mph
I drive up to Heathrow & back (from Cornwall) = 525 miles - for £40 of diesel
the 320d is actually more efficient @ 80mph than @ 55 mph
How do they know what area of refinery it came from ie esso get it from center ? . As there is no identification only that they contain petrol/ diesel ect on rail tankers just the hazard codes ie 1203 petrol 1202 diesel
I,m sure you can answer this puzzling question, soon as you worked at refinery :wink:
Maybe car manufactures should publish mpg figures for the various super market brands of fuels lol
Some very far fetched claims on here for better mpg on esso BP ect fuels .
Even they dont make out you may get 10/15% more mpg
Airlines are how you run a car, cheapest fuel, reserve enough to the next petrol station, never on a full tank and regular servicing.
As for filling up every 100 miles, its good to take a few minutes break from driving, I fill up and just grab a large flask of hot water, small water bottle (cooler) & a jar of Percol Black & Beyond from the kitchen before leaving with some sugar sachets you find everywhere... STOP, revive, SURVIVE :wink:
Besides, coffee from a break/fuel stop, generally vulgar experience of expensive, just like fuel - at least I can avoid one of þe two evils :laughing:
Airlines will always fuel in the cheapest place possible carrying just enough fuel with a certain reserve level to take into account any diversions they may encounter. Not all countries/airports charge the same per kilogram of fuel.
With the 3 Series, however, BMW’s claims turn out to be more honest than most. Once more taking the 320d as our example, BMW says it will do 61.4mpg; our own tests driving the car in a gentle but hardly saintly style yielded 56.8mpg.
get a life.
I changed the fuel pump/pre filter assembly in the tank at 90k and there was virtually no sediment or corrosion in the tank.
For most regular servicing including the inline fuel filter (which often gets missed off) should be enough. As long as you don't run it almost dry regularly.
Think we've spotted a remoaner though :wink:
never run under 1/4 of a tank - gunk damages
always fill up whenever possible at night at your nearest garage when the car is going to bed - gunk is better at the bottom of a tank settling there overnight not filling up before driving with a fresh deposit of gunk in the fuel being consumed, add a additive in the morning before setting off

fill the tank not far over half, you are burning fuel by carrying excess fuel - there is a reason airlines dont 'fill up' to the max, but never run below 1/4 tank where gunk sits and moves around whilst in motion - also erratic/bad driving does not only burn fuel, it disturbs the gunk sediment off the bottom of the tank
lastly regularly service your car/parts like you do with your own body with food, cleaning and change of whatever as needed.
:wink:
nothing has changed.
haven't even triggered article 50
Brexit will happen here. Even now the leave vote would still be 43-44% leave vs 45% remain according to the pollsters in the last month. For all the headlines and protests against the leave vote opinion has not really changed that much. Just the remain camp is more vocal.
£0.99 per litre if you spend £50 is okay. Personally I would rather have £5 off at the till instead but Morrisons clearly want to ensure you spend the money with them. I don't see all supermarkets matching this at the pump.
I know Sainsburys have done a few 7p off fuel vouchers at the till if you spend x amount on certain departments. I prefer free points or money off. Of course the larger tank you have the better these deals might be. 40 litre tank will get you almost £4. 100 litre tank gives you nearly £10 off your fuel. Most I suspect would save £4-5 at the pump.
It happens everywhere. I've never believed much that came out of magazines like this.
The reason for the rise lately in oil prices was the view that demand for oil was recovering and oil stocks in countries such as the US were falling. Mix that in with reduced investment to find new places to drill for oil. Not to mention OPEC eventually regaining control of the worldwide oil supply. This slight blip in prices from $54-$46 a barrel probably won't last long.

In fact you have a Mr Trump to thank for the falling prices.
anyone has access to T&C for the 10p off on purchase of 50£?
Anyone claiming prices because of 'brexit' are full of the smelly stuff.
Typical, the banks and corporations holding the economy hostage. Surely this has never happened before.......

Note: I'm not disputing whether or not the ingredients differ. But if this had a noticeable effect on quality, why wouldn't that be used as a selling tool? It is for 'premium' products.
No facts to back anything you say up.
Typical HUKD hero.

I also tried Esso - that returned 52MPG - but Esso is pita to get to
Also, there is no evidence that their fuel offers anything better.
It all comes out of the same refinery and the only difference is additives, often so minute, it's barely detected by tests.
I suppose you've done your research rather than listening to the local drunk? Thought not.
:confused:
Ask a taxi driver in your town if he uses Morrisons fuel.
I for one think road tax should be a monthly expensive lifted by PAYE, £50 for those in tax, £75 for higher tax payers more for any higher brackets - generally the more money one has the more they use the roads because fuel poverty of any kind is just a fairytale to most them. Road use is overused & underfunded, companies esp should pay higher per vehicle and force them to use rail more to drop off points and allow use of vehicles local/regional - the main roads are full of trucks, a public body company should be pulling rail freight for non profit as a environmental and road damage issue, but every government just keeps buying expensive road 'plaster' repairs.
No where is there a bigger monopoly than barrel$ of oil
If they took the tax and ploughed it into public transport we would really be getting somewhere.
Thieves!
