.........now thats what I like to see.

Competition like this is great because it means the motorist is going to get a better deal, got to be a good thing. Especially for people who do a lot of travelling.

my link wouldn't work :( anyhow its www.bbc.co.uk/news

    Can't see the story on there........

    Competition is generally good but in this case the important thing is that the competition drives the development of new fuel sources, more efficient engines, greener solutions etc, not just pander to the motorist and make increasedx consumption easier........

    Esso (or rather its parent company Exxon) truly is the spawn of the devil anyway. I haven't refuelled at any of their stations in years.

    Forgot to add that the AA's petrolbusters website is a useful tool when it comes to finding the cheapest petrol in your area.
