Well I use v-power and have a v-power card which the money back vouchers justify the pence difference between normal unleaded and v-power... Well it used too... Used to be 6p difference between the two, now 8p difference and of course less points as less litres for you money... Might have to try Tescos at fleetsbridge, is tescos doing 5p off at mo!?

Well with the points and fuel vouchers, they're pretty much paying you to use v-power, so he'll why not! ;-)

Agreed Dom, but shell didnt send my last batch of vouchers lol. Ive got almost 2000 points now so itll be a nice discount when it comes around at last lol

And no, I dont think they are-  they are just much cheaper than shell for 99ron atm

the TT costs me circa £200 a month in shell's finest.  £200 well spent, I enjoy driving it, don't smoke or drink (much!) so my vice is a 5 pot!

it averages 26 ish to the gallon too!  great value!

Do it? I tried a couple of tanks of super and couldn't really notice a difference. Definitely not 8p a litre's worth of anyone's money. Besides, everyone raves about Shell V Max and I don't live anywhere near an outlet. Tis about a 50 mile round trip to the nearest Shell station!

I've just filled up for the 3rd time this week and was 141.9 for v power, but end of last week was 138.9 iirc, so £200 for 3 tanks. I could have avoided filling up as much but I get an itchy right foot once my comp says 200miles done with 250 remaining lol

Was surprised it cost so much as it just under half full!  :scared:

I just put £60 worth of 95 RON in at the weekend because I got a 6ppl coupon from Morrisons , went to Sunderland and back (150 mile round trip) and managed to get 38 MPG (indicated) by not caning it for a change! PS since I posted above about the prices , it has went up 2p a litre here.  :confused:

Someone is taking the piss.

This has nothing to do with supply/ demand.

Probably some cartel betting on the futures Market pushing prices ever higher.

Remember when it went over a pound and we had road blocks etc. It all stopped, wtf happened? Where is the dude who organised it all? (on a beach in The Bahamas sponsored by Shell?)?

(rant over)
